Close your eyes and simply focus on your breath. Breathe into your stomach slowly, and let the air move up to your lower lungs and then into the chest area. This is known as the "complete breath." Take it slow and easy. Each breath in will bring more and more relaxation, and each exhalation will let go of all stress and tension. Just do this for five minutes, lightly focusing on the regular rhythm of your breathing. Soon, you will naturally be more and more relaxed with every breath. Your breath is your instructor -- trust that your next one will come without any effort. Just let it happen. Let it all go, and relax. If your mind starts to wander, just bring it back to your breath. Let your thoughts come in, acknowledge them, and slowly watch them leave again. Notice how it feels to be completely relaxed. Focus on your breath while you let all that mind chatter slow down and evaporate.
In your mind's eye, or third eye, I want you to imagine a symbol of your choosing. It can be a flower, a religious figure or icon, a word, or whatever is pleasing to you. Make it your own special symbol that you use every single time you meditate. At this point, just focus without straining on your symbol. I want you to inhale with a complete breath and bring your awareness up to your third eye as you focus on your symbol. It's almost as if you're breathing in and out through this center. Do this for another five minutes. If your mind wanders, focus on the breath and your symbol to bring you back.
During this relaxed state, it would be a great time to ask Spirit for an answer to a certain question. You can even ask if there's anything that your intuition has been trying to tell you. You may see an image, a scene, or beautiful colors. You can also allow your spirit guides to make themselves known to you. Your answer may not be immediate -- it may even present itself in a few days. Or you could be at the right place, at the right time and receive your answer immediately. After about 15 minutes, slowly move your fingers while remaining aware of your body, and bring yourself back into the here-and-now and become aware of the room around you. Remain seated for a moment, contemplate your meditation, and see how you feel.
