Step 9. Meditation

My best medicine, for which I will be eternally grateful, is
meditation. I have been practicing it for many years.
In Eastern medicine, it is said that a person who has had traumas
and disappointments, has headaches. The explanation is that energy
is retained, trying to find a solution through thought, i.e. through
the brain. The mind is continually looking for an explanation of why
things are the way they are. There is an imbalance in the distribution
of energy in the body.
One day, when I was with my professor of Traditional Chinese
Medicine, (someone whom I deeply admire), I asked him why, despite
having experienced painful situations, I did not suffer from a headache
at all. He replied that this is because I was meditating and had made
this a daily habit. As a result, the channels in my body were open. Thus,
there are no obstructions for the passage of energy through my body.
I am always flattered when people ask me where I get so much
energy to do and achieve so many things in spite of the many difficult
situations I have experienced in my life.
On hearing the word meditation, many imagine that they have
to spend a lot of time sitting in a very boring position. However, it
does not have to be this way. Meditation can also be to imagine being
filled with the Light of Love when you need it. You turn that Light of
the color on that you need most at that moment. I do it with white,
and sometimes with gold or blue. It depends on the occasion. This
takes only a few seconds.
I talk more extensively about this in other chapters of my book
My Health Bible No.2.
I would like to say something about thoughts before continuing
with meditation. Imagine that you see everything that exists. What was
it before all this? What had to exist before all this became reality for
our eyes? Before the creation of an airplane, a chair, a large building,
