Relaxation

References are frequently found to "Meditation" as a means of achieving spiritual experience. But which version should you use - because many versions exist? And how much are the classes going to cost? And do they really help with spiritual experience, or are they simply a means of keeping fit? And what if you are old, inflexible or overweight, unable to sit with your legs crossed in yogi fashion? The answer is to use "Relaxation" instead. It may not keep you fit, but it provides the right conditions for obtaining an experience for all those unable or even unwilling to go to a yoga or meditation class [or pay for one]. Even if you do fall asleep, no harm will have been done and you may find the sleep helps you anyway. The process reduces nervous sensations to a minimum and also helps eliminate the "mind chatter" which blocks the whispers of experience. And it is benign, does not hurt you and costs you nothing. And for those who are over 60, weigh 18 stone [and above] and have no wish to be seen in a pink leotard by a group of fit 30 year olds, it is a godsend.
