Do you ever wonder if you meditate correctly or do you fall asleep during meditations? Maybe you don’t think you’re cut out for meditation, even if it's something you want to do. So let’s talk about the top questions and concerns around developing a meditative practice.  The Benefits of Mediation if Your Fall Asleep  There is no specific benefit. But there also is no detriment!! Falling asleep is just your body getting into its most receptive state. It allows you to just experience the meditation while releasing control and expectation.  What Happens When You Cannot Follow Along or “Black Out” During the Guided Meditation  Many people think if they lose focus and “miss” a section (or almost all) of a guided meditation that they are doing something wrong.  Actually it is just the opposite. Typically this is an indication that you went deep into trance or were working directly with your Guides in some other deep way.  What To Do If You Cannot Be Still During Your Meditation  Sometimes we are in such a state of constant motion that our minds and bodies seem to no longer understand “be still”. Sometimes it is as simple as giving yourself permission to “stop” for a period of time to make enough space for a little relaxation to set in. Our ego thinks it needs to be in control during this time when this is the perfect time for it to take a break.  Why You Might Resist Meditation   You might feel like you “resist” meditation if you get your messages through your body like the channeler. It would be important to expend some energy before trying to meditate so you can get into a mindful state. Fear of what you’ll see or that you’ll do it wrong can also be reasons why you might feel   How To Know If Your Meditation Is Working  For one you will start noticing areas in your life shifting into a higher vibration or experience an energetic shift. By the sheer effort of the practice you may also notice your intuition getting stronger. Some meditations are meant to release blocks so you may experience some form of release.  No matter how you choose to meditate, just know you can’t do it wrong and how ever you do it is what is just right for you.  Here’s to staying Spiritual and Ambitious.  LINKS:  Whitney’s 20 meditations  Book Your Reading Here  Enroll in Whitney’s 4 Intuitive Languages® Program  Whitney’s Oracle Deck  Review This Podcast  Whitney’s Instagram    ** Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts ** Please consider rating and reviewing my show, Spiritual and Ambitious!
