Getting that brainwave and having a good day.

​Dear All,

How is your day going?

The difference between having a good day and a not so good day may be down to what you do first thing in the morning and the state you're in.

For most of us having a good day means feeling energised, physically and mentally, and  getting stuff done and sorted out with very little effort. This is usually accompanied by a satisfying sense of achievement at the end of the day.

If you're managing to do your 5-10 minutes of sahaja yoga meditation in the morning, it perhaps won't be a surprise to you that your most creative and productive days are those days where you are able to make some quiet space for yourself before rushing out.

One of the nicest feelings you can have is leaving the house in the morning on a meditation 'natural high': when you feel good then good stuff happens. This is what is known in Zen (the word 'zen' is derived from Indian 'dhyan' which means to meditate), as being in the 'Flow' ( 'wu wei' - actionless action).

This state is not just subjective but is associated with measurable brain wave patterns. Here's a 2 minute explainer about the brain waves from a sahaja yoga meditation feature on Australian television news.

The kundalini it seems may be making the temporary state of being in the flow, a more permanent one, through a re-shaping of the brain, known as neuroplasticity in science. So stick with it; in future everybody may be having a good day every day:o).

See you at group meditation tomorrow.
