If you are wondering how to find time to meditate because you are busy or live with your parents, a simple solution is: wake up 30 mins earlier than you usually do and use that time to meditate.

There's a misconception that you have to do at least a 30 minute meditation session. If you don't have that much during the day, you can do 5-10 minutes of chakra work, aura cleaning and energy work multiple times during the day, this is fine as well.

Another misconception is that you have to sit at home and do meditation. You can do meditation everywhere: when you're waiting for the bus to arrive, when you're driving or anytime you're waiting and are bored (and don't tell me there aren't many such times in your life). That is recommended, as you can do mini-meditations during your day and boost your soul when you have nothing better to do.

So you can see, all this "I don't have to meditate" is usually only an excuse: if you look closely you will find many hours a day to meditate. They don't have to be done all at once and it's not necessary.

If you live with your parents, you have to find an excuse to meditate. Almost every teenager I know does something that their parents don't approve, like smoking weed. Where do they find their time and place to do these things? If they can smoke weed (something that's arguably worse than meditating) then they can meditate too. Just ask yourself: if you wanted to do something like smoke weed, where and when would you do it and how? Then apply that to meditation. In fact, meditation is much easier than smoking weed, as you can just sit and pretend to be thinking, or lie down and pretend to be sleeping.

You're right.
I will try to adopt this mindset more and more.
Thanks Brother.
 
The important thing is also to truly understand how important Meditation is, it goes beyond spirituality, it will literally change your material life as well. The benefits are infinite. Once one understand this, he will make it a top priority and he will find time for it in one way or another.
 
Finding the time is the easy part.

Taking that time to actually meditate is the harder thing.

Frankly; games, movies, friends, food, sex among many other things is often way more appealing than meditation.

Taking the time to meditate - means taking the time from for example social engagement and using that time to meditate, instead of being out with friends, or eating desserts, or watching a good movie.
 
Another thing I'd like to add is that Meditation becomes so much more interesting and beautiful when you are more advanced. The beginning is the hardest time as a meditator, because you barely feel the energy, and you don't even know if what you're doing is working. But when you are more advanced and you are able to enter deep trances, feel your bioelectricity and Chakras very intensly etc. every Power Meditation (or almost) becomes a very pleasant and intense experience. The fact that you see progress more clearly with time also helps.
 
After a certain amount of time dedicated to meditation covering the initial level has been started, one cannot go back in any way.
One can reduce periodically, but it will all be in a perpetual uphill climb.
 
Great post, and I really hope it'II help people who struggle to find the time and place for meditations. I'd like to add my own tip here, how I personally do my meditations. I don't have the best living conditions, so these could be helpful for those who have family/people around them 24/7, don't have their own private space and can't even sneeze without the family hearing.

Workings which involve vibrating the runes or mantras but doesn't neccecarily need a trance state could be done in the bathroom, before taking a shower/bath. Vibrating in short breaths and quietly is valid and effective, and your noises will be drowned out by the running water. If you can only take showers grab the showerhead and position it in a way which the water directly hits the shower curtain, it's gonna make some loud noises which will conceal the vibrations (If you want you can fold/wrinkle the courtain beforehand, the noises will be even louder). Optionally, you can sit down and put the showerhead between your knees as you sit with stretched out legs, this way you'II have both of your hands to keep counting the number of vibrations. The bathroom is your best friend when you're someone who doesn't have any privacy at home at all. It's also easy enough to do, because most people already take a shower or bath before going to bed for example, so extending it with a little meditation shouldn't be a problem. This is how I do one half of my night routine, and I know that these conditions are definitely not "ideal" for meditations, but you gotta grab every opportunity you can. For longer workings I kind of still do the same, except the running water part. I just hide in the bathroom, and really quietly whisper the vibrations. I believe it's weaker this way, but it's still completely valid nonethless.
