What is Guided Meditation?

Guided meditation is an intentional, focused meditation technique that is very useful for achieving a specific purpose, such as deep relaxation, behavior modification, or releasing negative emotions and self-limiting beliefs. The primary difference between guided meditation and other forms of meditation is that instead of working to clear your mind, the guided meditation practitioner allows their subconscious mind to follow the words and visualizations provided.

Guided meditations vary greatly depending on what the practitioner is looking to achieve. Sometimes, a single guided meditation session to achieve deep relaxation is all a busy, stressed-out worker needs to achieve clarity. Others need an entire guided meditation retreat in order to get to the point of releasing negative emotions and self-limiting beliefs. If the goal is behavior modification, guided meditation should be a part of your regular meditation routine.
