Off course everyday catalyst is perhaps the most important, and how you respond/react to it. But I haven't really gotten to a "routine" when it comes to meditation, just trying different methods that I've read about here and there.
I am thinking about beginning with Yoga, maybe kundalini-yoga.
According to the little i've understood, the functionning of the chakra are closely related to our beliefs, thought patterns and emotions.
A method that seems to work for most is to write down on a piece of paper or to record with a dictaphone all your thougths (there is something special about handwriting or speaking) , your concerns and fears about your physical appearance and all that's related. Be very extensive and record all the negative thougths you can find. Empty your bag. You will probably already feel better.
Now a second step if you're interested is related to the teaching of Ra :
Quote:To begin to master the concept of mental discipline it is necessary to examine the self. The polarity of your dimension must be internalized. Where you find patience within your mind you must consciously find the corresponding impatience and vice versa. Each thought that a being has, has in its turn an antithesis. The disciplines of the mind involve, first of all, identifying both those things of which you approve and those things of which you disapprove within yourself, and then balancing each and every positive and negative charge with its equal. The mind contains all things. Therefore, you must discover this completeness within yourself.
The second mental discipline is acceptance of the completeness within your consciousness. It is not for a being of polarity in the physical consciousness to pick and choose among attributes, thus building the roles that cause blockages and confusions in the already-distorted mind complex. Each acceptance smoothes part of the many distortions that the faculty you call judgment engenders.
You can them find the opposites of the negative statements you wrote and to able to attain balance. This will help in living in oneness and opening the indigo ray. http://www.bring4th.org/forums/showthrea...#pid208225

I've read that passage before but haven't completely understod how to work on it. Am I suppose to just try to think the opposite thought? Is it almost like affirmations, to repeat "I am confident" or "I am beautiful"?
Let's say that a person has a big nose that bothers him (just an example). The original thought is "My nose is too big". What exactly is the opposite of that? I guess that thinking "my nose is too small" doesn't make much sense? Do you think it would rather be "My big nose is beautiful" or something like that?
