Meditation – Page 7 – Ellen E. Norman

Meditation is a way for your soul to connect with God and the universe. Each of us needs this connection in order to feel nourished, complete and fulfilled.

When I first began channeling, Archangel Gabriel encouraged me to begin a meditation practice. I’ll be honest: The idea sounded ridiculous to me. I was a stay-at-home mom of three children, with one in school and two at home. I didn’t know where to start.

Archangel Gabriel suggested I sit on a comfortable chair, cross my legs, and put my hands — palms facing up — on my knees. He said this shows I am open to receive.

So, I tried it. At night, after my kids went to bed. And do you know what happened? I fell asleep. I’d go into meditation and fall asleep. Every time.

But the important thing was I tried.

I then asked my angels and guides to help me find other ways to meditate. Here’s what I realized. Meditation takes on many forms. I opened my mind in meditation when I took a walk outdoors; while I folded laundry; during my morning shower. I tried to clear my mind of scattered thoughts … and simply listen.

What did I hear? My voice. The voice of my soul. Intermingled with the voice of God and the angels. Encouragement. Ideas. Inspiration. Truths.

I also joined a Monday night meditation group at a local spiritual center. And that really got the ball rolling. Once I became more comfortable practicing within a group of likeminded individuals, it felt easier to try to meditate a little more at home.

The idea is to keep it simple, sister. Take baby steps. Begin with a meditation that lasts for five minutes; then, build up to 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes or more. Take a few deep breaths, clear your mind of thoughts, and listen.

Eventually you will slip into deeper and deeper states of meditation. And enjoy the many benefits of meditation, like reduced stress, better sleep, improved health, a greater sense of well-being and — ultimately — peace. In addition, meditation is an important tool in developing your intuition.

The key is to continue practicing.

“My sweet. How goes it? Mama Mary. Rest with me. In my arms. In our arms, collectively, as a whole. For we love you so. It is with great honor that I present my son, Jesus, to you. Rest assured, I stay by your side permanently. For good.” (smile)

“Hello, there. How’s our Ellen? It’s been a little while, huh? So the holiday rush is over. The stress has died down some. Let’s talk about some ideas — objectives, goals — at the very least, some points I’d like to discuss. Okay?

“This may seem odd to you, but I know where you’re coming from. The fear. The uncertainty. The rigidity, at times. It was part of me also — my genetic makeup — my human nature. I had desires. Dreams. Disappointments. Days where I felt like lying around, doin’ not too much. I can identify with those feelings you have, the things for which you begrudge yourself, harboring feelings of remorse, doubt, regret.

“Sweet pea, please try — so very hard — to let that stuff go. It’s just not worth it — the battle — the regret, pain, shame. Those ‘things,’ or articles, don’t last, sweetheart. But YOU do! And you’re so much more important than those ‘things.’

“I had romantic desires. They came to me, just as they would to anyone. They weren’t fleeting. I was just as curious as any young boy or man. I wasn’t supernatural in nature. Simply put, I was just like you. Real thoughts, real dreams, real occurrences, real prayers, real miracles.

“And this is what I wish to relay to you now: Let it happen! Allow miracles and abundance to flow into your life. And let them flourish! Receive them; be open to the flow. Sit in quiet meditation with me, my Mother, and the angels. Please try to be more flexible with your time.

“TLC. Go get yourself some. Go to bed, little sleepyhead.”
