Meditation: The Magic of Yes!
What do sales, hypnosis, and meditation all have in common? Yes. All three involve internal acceptance, or saying “Yes.” We have to soften ourselves for any of these to happen. We have to relax the mind-body. We have to accept.
Hypnosis puts a client into any variety of altered states in order to learn faster, change habits, deeply relax, etc. In order for this to happen, though, the client must accept the instructions of the hypnotist. Even if self-hypnosis, you have to relax and accept the process: you have to say “yes” to yourself! The depth of trance is directly proportional to the acceptance of the subject.
In meditation, this ability to accept is sometimes referred to as equanimity or non-judgment. Not only is this paramount to your ability to sit in silence, but this is also the skill that will allow you to bring your practice of meditation to your day-to-day life. When you sit quietly, thoughts inevitably arise. Fighting this will only make it worse. Accepting it will not only reduce it, but will also give you the power to direct it as you see fit.
