What is meditation?

There are many definitions of what meditation is and many purposes. The purpose for us at Openhand is to bring us into a state of 'continual conscious awareness'. In other words being in complete awareness of everything that is going on for us in our various bodily vehicles of expression and in the surroundings.

19/01/12: "The Art of Everyday Meditation..."

Anytime, anywhere, anyone
The wonderful thing about meditation is that anybody can do it. Contrary to popular belief there is no right or wrong way to practice it. It is an innate expression of the soul, and can be done anywhere, anytime, any environment, whilst engaged in anything. It can happen whilst walking in the woods, washing the laundry, swimming in the ocean, dancing, singing, chopping wood, surfing, running, sitting in a busy airport waiting for your plane...

06/12/11: "The Power of Meditation..."

Healing humanity and all life
Right now in the world the old fear based reality has become unstable and is beginning to fracture. It's what science calls the movement of disordering free entropy. But wherever you have that destructive energy breaking things down, the miraculous thing is, reconstructive energies take shape immediately the parts of the old consciousness fragment. It is a reordering energy science calls 'neg-entropy' and the Awakening Movement knows much more appropriately as unconditional love! It's drawing us into a higher paradigm of greater energetic harmony. Meditation has the power to do this. We become channels of consciousness for the new energies to flow in. Not only is meditation powerfully healing for us, but the whole of life on our planet...

Multi-dimensional Meditation

Meditation in day-to-day life
I felt to write about a truly wonderful meditational experience I had yesterday, particularly because I believe it demonstrates how beautiful experiences can just 'happen' to us if we're aware, watching and exploring the nature of reality all the time (to me this is what meditation is anyway). It also demonstrates how vital it is to respond to that quiet inner voice and go with its direction, however odd it may at first seem. For me, it meant that what began as a quiet sunny afternoon in the fields, transitioned to swimming with blue whales in the 5th Dimension!...

Is there a place for prayer within spirituality?

A prayer of the soul
Meditation is an accepted tool within spirituality for catalysing our spiritual evolution. It seems prayer is becoming less and less favoured. So is there still a place for prayer on the spiritual journey and if so, what kind? Speaking as a non-religious person, I can say that frequently, I experience a deep upwelling from my soul about a situation or event. I find that by expressing those arising feelings within a meditative, interconnected state, then I can feel my meditative prayer having an organising impact on the field around me. It feels like a powerful way of bringing into being the Right Action of the universe...

"Beyond the veil" guided meditation

Guided meditation can be a powerful tool to move beyond the veil of illusion. Here is a powerful meditation that can help us to taste that. It also serves as a good grounding technique as we are invited to fully return to the third dimension whilst infusing higher consciousness into every day existence...

Universal life energy attunement meditation

Meditation can be a powerful way of helping us to remove the blockages that prevent us following our authentic flow. Yesterday I experienced an amazing visual and experiential universal life energy attunement meditation that invited a powerful infusion of higher guiding consciousness. For anyone interested I highly recommend it...

Universal life energy attunement


What is universal life energy attunement?
The practice of the Openhand Approach and Meditation is a powerful way of attuning to universal life energy. What is meant by this and why is it important?

Imagine I have two tuning forks standing next to one another and I strike one to create a note. Without touching the other, it too will begin to play its own note. This is called 'resonance'. When one thing begins to resonate more strongly at its own natural frequency, it sets up a powerful chain reaction sending catalytic ripples of evolutionary consciousness into the outer field...

Six senses walk


Want to revitalise your senses?
In our society there are endless distractions which tends to overload our senses - we quickly become desensitised. This makes us less aware of the truth of the moment, what the energy is really revealing to us so we don't witness the magical wonders and synchronicity of life. So how do we turn down the noise and reconnect so that we may feel the truth and beauty once more? This six senses walk will help...

Meditating on the Inner Flame

How do we kindle the flame within?
Many enlightened masters have spoken of the fire of inner transformation burning away the dross and bringing heightened states of awareness and empowerment. What are they talking about? Is this a real phenomenon and if so, how do you make your inner flame burn brightly?
