Meditative
self discovery is not spiritually focused like a meditative prayer. Meditative self discovery is a simple mindfulness
practice of finding out more about who we are through purposeful meditation. The process of meditative self discovery is
supported by being still and open to whatever information comes to us during
our meditative state.
When we are
still, non-judgmental and un-controlling, we are able to observe our thoughts
and feelings without restrictions. This
practice of transparency assists us in
knowing our mind and ultimately, knowing ourselves. Mindfulness also aids in our neuroplasticity,
supporting training and shaping our mind in new ways which ultimately aids with
the aging process.
Deliberate
and conscious focus during meditative self discover may reveal inner conflicts and
aversion symptoms may arise such as depression, sadness, anger, and so on. The
more we know who we are, the more strength and wisdom we acquire, and the more
adaptable we become. Eventually, through
our surrender of conflict we are able to replace struggle with acceptance. The more we accept people, places and things as they truly are, the more we will be able to cultivate balance and inner
peace no matter what is taking place outside of us.
