When you start to train yourself to meditate, teachers will often advise you to set up a routine so the process will more easily become a habit. The expert advice is usually
  • to meditate at a certain time each day,
  • for a certain amount of time (such as 15 minutes),
  • in a consistent environment (such as in certain chair, with or without a candle, with or without incense, etc.)
  • wear loose fitting clothes
Some teachers will also recommend you use the same meditation process each time you meditate, such as closing your eyes, taking a certain number of breaths in and out, visualize your chakras, or maybe even using certain hand positions (called mudras). All of these are techniques to help train your mind and body to more easily get you into the "meditation zone". The meditation zone is  where your sensations change and your "monkey mind" turns off. This is where you feel what some call  "inner bliss", or "peace of mind", or "the connection with the vortex and source energy", or "stepping out of your physical self". The more you practice your daily meditation and use the same techniques each time, the  more quickly your mind and body will bring you to that "meditation zone".

These meditation techniques provide you with a tried and true method get you to that space where true wonder and awe begins. But it doesn't mean it is the ONLY way to get there. In fact, once you have that process under your belt, you may also want to explore using other methods or adding to your meditation tool kit. Why? Because different meditation procedures can open different doors and take you to new paths.

For example, you can try meditating during a different time of day, or add more meditation slots into your day, or even meditate for longer periods, for example, Or you can try different positions, such as a standing meditation, or a walking meditation, or meditate with your eyes open. You can try meditating when you are in the air (such as on an airplane) or meditating as you float in water (or on a boat). You can also use various tools to stimulate your different senses (sound, smells, tastes, touch, etc.) in your meditation as well.

There are many wonders and a vast array of experiences awaiting you once you learn how to get into the "meditation zone". But there are also new pathways and doors that you can explore when you try going broader or deeper in your meditations.
