An Easy Way to Meditate or Possibly Help You to Fall Asleep

There are times when I wish my children were young again and my home was filled with the noises of laughter over different things, like a joke someone told or TV show or a silly passage from a book one of us would be reading or playing a fun family game. I would even like to hear them complaining or bickering about one thing or another to me or with each other or especially with my mom.

I am very proud of them as “adults” and how they live their lives. I’m overjoyed with the 2 and 4 legged grandchildren they have blessed me with. The love and happiness I feel when I’m in one of their homes or a family gathering.


Tonight though, I’m enjoying the mostly quiet house while listening to the snores from Big Dawg and our furry kid beautiful opus. Considering that no one else’s family’s opus is going to sound just like ours makes it even more special to me. Granted they each snore a different way and pitch which might just sound like noise to any of you.

This takes me back to when my children were younger, summers were amazing as all five of my children would at home with my mom and me, and listening to my children’s and mom’s calming snoring opus!


The Universe has blessed night for me by melding yesterday and the present, old memories, and new. I know from experience that I will wake up more refreshed because of the music I’m hearing tonight.

Maybe I should try to record Big Dwag, Crystal and myself all sleeping soundly that way my snoring can be included in our homes “Ode to Sleep” opus. But maybe not because BD says I snore louder than anyone else in the house…lol


Seriously, if you have not listened to the human and animal companion sounds, when you’re the only one awake, try it.

Some tips my experience has taught me to get the most calming energy, that life is great feeling, and filling my love cup until it overflows all through our home and out into the universal energy for others to use this energy and love for whatever they might need it for.

1: Tune out the furnace/AC, fans, ice dropping in your freezer, wind, or whatever the weather is throwing your way. etcetera. This will definitely take some practice. Turn the baby/child monitor down, if you use one, until it’s barely hearable.

2: Turn off your cellohone/mobile phone, computer, laptop, tablet, raidos, and TV. This helps you not to be distracted by any of them.

3: Try to tune in only to the sounds of your loved ones sleeping. Close your eyes as this takes away visual distractions. Pretend you can enlarge the outside part of your ear as big as you can or want to so you don’t miss any of those lovely notes! I picture mine as large wolf ears as canines hear so much better than we do.

I have found out that listening to this “music” is great for my insomnia!

I also use this “music” sometimes to meditate with when I’m in the mood to

To me, it is so much better than regular “white noise” or other things on the market to supposedly help people to fall asleep or reach a deep meditated state. It is certainly less expensive than those things are.

Remember you may not have the experience you accepted the first few times because in a tiny way you are adjusting what you hear and do not want to hear but that’s OK. Great things come with a large dose of patience. Be kind to yourself if you choose to try this by not expecting perfection or near perfect the first few or perhaps many times you try it. It will come to you sooner or later.

March 10 and 11

Herakles/Hercules

This day celebrates the super-human strength of the Greek hero-God Herakles, son of Alcmene by Zeus. His many adventures included fighting a bull-headed snake to win the love of his earthly wife Deianeira. During the battle, he tore off one of the animal’s horns, which became the cornucopia. He then fought and killed the centaur Nessus, who had tried to rape her. Before Nessus died, he gave Deianeria some of his blood to put on Herakles’s tunic as a charm to keep his love. But the blood poisoned Herakles by burning him. Distressed, Herakles sacrificed himself upon Mt. Oeta. When Herakles was admitted to Mt. Olympus as a God, Zeus gave him his daughter Hebe for his wife. They had two children, Alexiares and Anicerus.

Deities Associated With Friday – Aphrodite, Greek Goddess of Love

Free World
Deities Associated With Friday – Aphrodite, Greek Goddess of Love

Aphrodite was the Greek goddess of love and sexuality. According to legend, she was born fully formed from the white sea form that arose when the god Uranus was castrated. She came ashore on the island of Cyprus, and later was married off by Zeus to Hephaistos, the deformed craftsman of Olympus. Despite being married to Hephaistos, Aphrodite took her job as a goddess of sexuality seriously, and had a multitude of lovers, but one of her favorites was the warrior god Ares.

At one point, Helios, the sun god, caught Ares and Aphrodite romping around, and told Hephaistos what he had seen. Hephaistos caught the two of them in a net, and invited all the other gods and goddesses to laugh at their shame… but they had none whatsoever. In fact, Aphrodite and Ares had a good laugh about the whole thing, and didn’t particularly care what anyone thought. In the end, Ares ended up paying Hephaistos a fine for his inconvenience, and the whole matter was dropped.

At one point, Aphrodite had a fling with Adonis, the young hunter god. He was killed by a wild boar one day, and some tales indicate that the boar might have been a jealous Ares in disguise.

Aphrodite had several sons, including Priapus, Eros, and Hermaphroditus.

In many myths and legends, Aphrodite is portrayed as self-absorbed and cranky. It would seem that like many of the other Greek gods, she spent a lot of time meddling in the affairs of mortals, mostly for her own amusement. She was instrumental in the cause of the Trojan War; Aphrodite offered Helen of Sparta to Paris, the prince of Troy, and then when he saw Helen for the first time, Aphrodite made sure he was inflamed with lust, thus leading to Helen’s abduction and a decade of war.

A festival was held regularly to honor Aphrodite, appropriately called the Aphrodisia. At her temple in Corinth, revelers often paid tribute to Aphrodite by having rambunctious sex with her priestesses. The temple was later destroyed by the Romans, and not rebuilt, but fertility rites appear to have continued in the area.

In addition to her association with the sea and shells, Aphrodite is connected with dolphins and swans, apples and pomegranates, and roses.

Glitzerfantasy
Friday

Friday is dedicated to the planet Venus, personified as the Roman goddess of love. The Nordic goddess Freya, the patroness of women of power, gave her name to this day. In Norse mythology, she presides over the Valkyries, the winged goddesses who bring fallen heroes to Valhalla, the realm of the gods. Renowned for her beauty, Freya is often called “the Fair One.” Any spells or charms relating to matters of the heart are appropriate for this day, as well as divination for inspiration in the arts. The influence of Venus is strong on Fridays and makes this day suitable for issues dealing with love, comfort, and the fulfillment of desire.
