Meditation is a great thing to do.I really find it hard as my mind races.For me to be able to do it i need peace and quiet and darkness and need to be in a calmish mood for me to even try.Theres another technique i use and its with a hand mirror.The mood does not matter as stillness will come.Its a good technique it is used to also reach out with the spirit world.I can give you detailed instructions of the exact way i do it if you like but might take me a little while to type.
