Starting meditation - the basic method

Remember: At this page its all about Rational Meditation. That means that it's easy to get started and you don't need to know you eastern deities or recite koans or visualize symbols. Hey, you don't even have to have groan 'ohm' again and again. All you have to do to get started is:

• Sit down
• Close your eyes
• Breathe in, pause for a second, breath out, pause for a second. Repeat again and again.
  

It's that easy to get started. And if you never meditated in your whole life, this should give you and instant tool to fight stress. Do it when you need to cool down, when you need to get back in control or when everything just seems to overwhelm you.
You can sit anywhere, it doesn't matter. You can sit anyway you like (that's right: you don't have to sit like an Indian guru with the legs crossed).

This is meditation. Now, you might think that this is a bit simplistic, comparing with other guides you may have read about. And it is. If you want to take meditation to the next level, there are a number of things you might need to take into account, but to get started this is all that you need to do.
