Anything in general that has to do with increasing my consciousness and spirituality would be greatly appreciated.
There are many styles of meditation. If you are already meditating regularly and getting benefits from it, you are already doing quite well. Practicing regularly is perhaps one of the most important tips. Often meditating in the same place at the same time is considered beneficial. It is said that if you meditate every day for an hour, after three years of practice you will develop a life long resistance to stress. Meditating in a group is generally considered beneficial.
I just fall asleep if I try Someone told me I was supposed to drink 5 glasses of chardonnay before meditation
Meditation is very beneficial in life. Like mentioned earlier, it's best to do it daily. I used to have a stressful job, would go in the restroom if things got stressful, and just begin a meditation- my therapist called it "getting centered". Doesn't take long, but will calm the mind enough to not choke the living shit out of an arrogant co-worker. Lol.
