The
Meditaining experiential is a gentle method of
meditating (relaxing, going beyond thinking, experiencing) that can lead one to obtain a new image of self
(visualization, conceptualization, affirmation) and to
help one maintain self-worth, self-love, peace of mind & a
relationship with God (prayers of gratitude, movement, practice). Initially, it may be beneficial to be guided through the Meditaining experiential but then it is best done in
solitude.
Meditaining
can be a wonderful tool for those who have been addicted to a chemical or a
behavior, especially the Codependency and love/relationship addiction aspect (see addiction
model), but certainly recommended for anyone looking to
have a more authentic experience. It can be
especially helpful to those who were
wounded in their childhood environment and may, as a
result, carry self-loathing, shame, guilt
and/or remorse based on situations in the past
or their development. Folks that have endured such a history often have a false
constitution, which can drive them to habitual, compulsive and addictive thinking, feeling and
acting. Meditaining is a way of developing a new constitution which can direct a more positive and loving experience in how we think, feel and approach the present and the
future.
After an initial introduction to the
Meditaining Method, it is best
done in solitude. We also strongly support and recommend using the Meditating
Method in conjunction with the 12-step model, which is done with others
(not in solitude) and is also a vital part in recovery and the way to find the
true authentic self that we were created to be.
A Thomas Troward Quote on how we can Co-create with contemplation & Spirit of God: The way to establish a relationship with Spirit and access the power of this creating principle is to continuously contemplate yourself surrounded by the conditions you wish to produce.
