FW: [QUAD-L] Meditation instructor here
Seems through the many types of meditation that all roades lead to Rome. In rehab I went through 6 months with an acclaimed instructor. To this day I use meditation on diverse occasions. It is a good skill on practical levels but I'll leave nirvana to the super gurus.

I would teach different techniques of meditation, there are around 20 different types. Basically, it's about relaxing the body, mind and sprit. You would concentrate on the here and now called mindfulness. It has helped me better control my pain level by thinking it away.

Re: [QUAD-L] Meditation instructor here
There is no trick to the use of meditation. The fact is people can't think about two things at one time. Many people can concentrate to a degree that pain signals coming into the brain can be reassigned to stimulate pleasant thoughts and emotions. I meditate every day for at least twenty minutes. It isn't going to help in all situations. It can be the bridge for many people to help them adjust and accept their limitations while overcoming or dealing with limitations they place on themselves. It sounds too simple to be true. It works for me. I hope Bobbie has a great time sharing it with people in the group. Some of us could use help in the areas of stress and self image. Don't be afraid to learn about it. She might just have what you need. best to all of you. john - Original Message From: Merrill Burghardt [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: quad-list@eskimo.com Sent: Monday, March 31, 2008 6:14:53 PM Subject: FW: [QUAD-L] Meditation instructor here !-- _filtered {font-family:Tahoma;panose-1:2 11 6 4 3 5 4 4 2 4;} /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Times New Roman;} a:link, span.MsoHyperlink {color:blue;text-decoration:underline;} a:visited, span.MsoHyperlinkFollowed {color:blue;text-decoration:underline;} span.EmailStyle18 {font-family:Arial;color:navy;} _filtered {margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in;} div.Section1 {} -- Seems through the many types of meditation that all roades lead to Rome .

Re: [QUAD-L] Meditation instructor here
Hi Bobbie! I just rejoined, too! Can you give us all online meditation sessions? Might be a cure now that online activity can be considered a mental illess... right? Best!

Re: [QUAD-L] Meditation instructor here
After reading some of the confusion, maybe I can help? The word isn't mediation, it is meditation. I think it is great that anyone is exploring this. john - Original Message From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; quad-list@eskimo.com Sent: Sunday, March 30, 2008 7:17:59 PM Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] Meditation instructor here Exactly, what does a Mediation Instructor do?

John, Thanks for clearing that up for us. That was my mistake. I realized it after she responded to my e-mail. Did I not say that my concentration isn't what it should be (and neither is my memory).
