CLINICALLY STANDARDIZED MEDITATION (CSM)

Some people prefer to enter into silence and to experience the fruits without any religious connotations, simply for the physical and health benefits, for relaxation, inner peace, for stress management, or for better decision making and honing their skills for problem solving.  The secular method such as Clinically Standardized Meditation (CSM) referenced here are widely used.  Whether one uses a secular approach or a spiritual approach, either method can provide significant benefits and help improve the quality of your life.  For those who would like a more spiritual experience using a similar process for quieting the mind, see Peace Shield Meditation and Technology for Transformation.

Introduction To CSM - Clinically standardized Meditation

Complete home instruction in Clinically Standardized Meditation (CSM) was developed by Dr. Patricia Carrington to meet the demand by both the medical profession and the public for a responsible, effective, and easily accessible form of meditation. CSM is based on carefully controlled research and has been used successfully in leading medical centers, commercial organizations and by individuals in all walks of life.

Learning to meditate with CSM is easy. It does not require the adoption of any particular lifestyle or belief system, has no mystery about it and does not use special postures or difficult concentration techniques. The Course emphasizes variation of the technique to meet individual needs, provides training in all aspects of meditation, answers numerous questions posed by the beginner, and supplies guidance for successful continuing meditation practice.

Dr. Carrington, guides the new meditator through every step involved in learning meditation, using a series of audio cassette recordings. Her pleasant, easy instruction method has proved as effective as personal tuition. The accompanying manual complements the recordings, and provides a valuable source for future reference. Using CSM, you will be meditating after the very first instruction session and can fully master the technique within only nine days.
