Effective for May sickness when you lack motivation, a lifestyle that doesn't accumulate mental fatigue 【3 Steps of Meditation Anyone Can Do】

Are you accumulating mental fatigue?

In recent years, meditation has been scientifically proven to have a positive impact on the brain, gaining attention as a health method and a way to enhance work performance.

Various magazines and newspapers have featured meditation as a "mental exercise," and it has become a trend, with major companies adopting it as an internal program.

However, to fully realize the effects of meditation, a religious perspective is essential. To draw out the original effects of meditation and become 'naturally happy,' we will introduce talks from expert clergy and spiritual work.

We asked Akihisa Tsurukawa, the director of the Happiness Science training facility, Tokyo Seishinkan open_in_new, about the tips for meditation, guiding trainees from a spiritual perspective.

The busier you are, the more you need meditation.

Meditation is trending among businessmen and office workers. Behind this trend is the need to 'work hard while wanting to keep a calm mind and do inspiring work.'

In fact, those who work busily need meditation even more. If you engage in meditation correctly, you can maintain a calm mind as if sitting in Zen while working in a competitive society, and achieve miraculous success through inspiration. This is part of 'modern enlightenment,' and we at Happiness Science are helping to realize it.

Meditation is gaining attention as a relaxation technique, but that is just the 'entrance.' Beyond that lies the experience of 'being enveloped in happiness and being able to perceive various events positively' and 'receiving inspiration for problem-solving from the spiritual world.'

To have such experiences, it is important to cleanse negative emotions like anger and jealousy and fill your heart with gratitude to keep it pure. Meditation is a way to connect with the spiritual world, but whether you connect with divine beings or evil spirits depends on your state of mind (see the diagram below).

The 'temple' of Happiness Science is a sacred space protected by deities where inspiration descends. We offer many training programs that meet the needs of modern people, so please experience proper meditation at the temple and become 'naturally happy.'

【Practical Meditation Method】Simple 3 Steps Anyone Can Do

We will introduce a meditation method that can be done in your free time. You can heal your mental and physical fatigue and become a stress-free version of yourself.

※Before meditation...

Stretch by rotating your shoulders and neck or stretching your back. It's effective to loosen your body before breathing exercises!

1. Regulate your breathing

The basis of meditation is breathing. Try deep breathing using your abdomen while counting your inhalations and exhalations (aim for 10 times). As you continue deep breathing with your abdomen, your mind will settle, and spiritual power will enter.

2. Cleanse your mind

To remove your negative emotions, first check for negative words. The emotions behind the words are the source of the dirt.

For example...

◆ 'Taking a break for just a cold means you're really bored!'

Behind such sarcasm might be feelings of resentment or bitterness like, 'I'm trying hard even though I want to take a break.'

◆ 'I'm no good anyway...'

Behind such pessimism might be a desire for someone to deny self-deprecating statements and recognize and evaluate them.

◆ 'That person is flattering to raise their own evaluation.'

Behind such gossip might be a feeling like, 'I want to be recognized as superior to the other person.'

Inject positive thoughts into negative emotions.

For negative emotions, let's express the opposite positive thoughts. For example, if you find jealousy, try expressing feelings or words of blessing towards the other person instead.

3. Imagine

Strongly imagine, 'I am a golden orb spiritually.' This enhances self-trust and boosts resistance to illness. Imaging has power and gradually materializes. However, imaging based on self-centered thoughts invites evil spirits, so pre-cleaning your mind is essential!
