How To Implement Meditation For Couples

By Stacey Burt


Many people have been suffering from various illnesses because of one factor that is not even caused any damage or change to the body systems. Stress has the capacity to make you feel things and even your health is affected. And sometimes, it can be too powerful that it can also meddle with your relationships. And if you are married, having fights frequently because of it is never a good sign.

When couples fight, it is usually because they are having a bad day and one just got the way of the other. Fighting is something that is normal but when it is too frequent, it never is. There are several ways that this can be remedied and one effective way is undergoing meditation for couples. Through doing this together, you will come to understand each other more.

There are many people who have been able to experience the many health and emotional benefits that this activity can give. There are also others who seems to be enjoying a healthier mind because of it as well. When your brain and body are relaxed, you function better.

It was initially an individual activity that you can take by yourself. But today, there are many couples who are also doing this to strengthen their relationships and to mend whatever issues they have with each other. If you are already seeing marriage counselors, you should add this to your things to do before you sleep list so that what you have learned in counseling will be reinforced.

This would not be effective if you are the only one who is interested about this. You also need to get your partner agree and participate, otherwise it would not be effective. In order to fix the problem, you both need to be present and do the activity together.

One of the effects of the meditation process is that it can reduce the negative emotions that you are feeling. Another is that it gives you a clear head. So when you just went through a fight, meditating puts all things in perspective. And it also makes you think of a way to reach an agreement or reconcile.

Both of you need to find a place where you can meditate. As a prerequisite, this must be a space that is quite and free from distractions. If you opt to do this at home, you need to turn off all the devices including your phones. You can also turn on the answering machine. Power down the computers and try to turn off everything that might provide distractions to you while you are meditating.

The best position for the meditation is to sit in a cross legged position. Your back must be against each other so both of you will feel the others presence. And you both have to concentrate in your breathing so that the thoughts will be cleared.

Once you start the breathing, you will notice all the thoughts coming to focus. The process would do best if you just let the memories flow in to you. And then you should just observe as they slowly fade away and let the calmness take over you.
