    Meditation is great!!! I do it from time to time, I don't do it as much as I should or would like but check out Deepak Chopra. He was on Dr. Oz a few weeks ago and had a simple video posted on how to get started Meditating..

    I used to meditate nightly. I love it!
    It's really hard to me to get my mind quiet, so I came up with some visualizations to keep me focused, breathing even and get my heart rate down.
    The best one, for me, was visualizing a never-ending red staircase and with each inhale i would climb three and another three with each exhale until my breathing slowed and i no longer needed the stairs.

    How do I know if I am actually doing it right?

    I try to daily. I know I'm doing it right when I suddenly realize I haven't had a single thought for a bit...it's all about practice.

    I love the book, "peace in every step"! Good luck!

    Thank you for all your tips. I believe I have been successful. I have my fingers crossed that it helps my headaches.
