They seriously want you to pay for meditation? That's absolute bull crap. The best advice I've ever gotten for meditation: Just sit. Make it at least 15 minutes. Maintain good posture; some of the positive effects of meditation relate to spending time with your spinal chord straight, stomach a little out, rib cage supported, leading to good blood flow to the brain. Let your mind wander, but don't lose focus of your posture.<p>It is said that when one is still for long enough, the brain switches modes. The unmoving mind. We spend all day interacting with the world, filling our brains with facts, experiences, feelings, etc. Take a step back and empty your mind. But don't pay money for it.
These appear to be daily guided meditations, not just doing Zazen every day.<p>That said, I think the guy doing the videos (Andy Puddicombe I believe) does not have a good voice for this, or at least needs additional vocal training. He's nasal and too high pitched for me to be relaxed by it. I'm on edge after listening to one video. Perhaps a sound guy could fix it, but I'm guessing he's doing to have to go to a coach to learn how to get the nasal out and how to boom his voice a bit.
