Well, I do have a forest near my dad's place, but there's bears there now, so I can't do as much exploring as I used to. And they tend to get a nice bit of snow, so it's really rough during the winter.

Well I'm fortunate enough to have a large forest near my home and sometimes i go walking there to get back to nature. Sometimes I'll find a clearing and just sit there. I haven't actually tried meditating cuz I don't know how to enter a trance, but I still feel connected just being there.
I can never make myself fall into a trance , in order to meditate because I have voices in my head when I do. But when I DO enter a trance not of my own free will you can't wake me till I'm ready to come out. I don't even realize it. I fell asleep in church once because of it. I was at the front of the congregation, in the first row of the choir, so I can imagine how funny it would have looked for one of their members to just slump forward into a sleeping trance. Lol. But I got my much needed rest. <3

xD That reminds me of that sleeping disorder when you randomly fall asleep no matter where you are. My granfather has a mild case of it, [ that and he's senile... ] and tend to fall asleep while holding drinks. xD

What kind of voices exactly? Maybe there's a way to block them out?

Wow, I wish I had a disorder like that. xD I could fall asleep in school and it wouldn't be my fault! <3 Anyway, it's only happened once, and I was really tired then.

As for the voices, they're not evil, per sey, but just they're just that. Voices. Tiny whispers that are annoying anough to break my concentration to the point where I can't even properly meditate anymore. The most I can get is the occasional trance. And I don't even plan those, so ... yeah. My friend [Who could be considered a Satanist, I guess.] think that the whispers are trying to tell me something, but I keep ignoring them. Which in a way is true, since I hardly even try to meditate anymore. Which sucks, mind you.

If there's a safe way to get rid of them so I can meditate in peace, bring on the suggestions!!!

Listen to them then. Sit down and be in the quiet for a while and figure out what they're saying, if you can make out that they're saying.

Well, I never got the chance to last night because I had watched my CATS musical thingy again, and had all the songs stuck in my head. So whenever I tried concentrating, my brain kept humming the songs. Heh. sweatdrop

EDIT:: OMG! I just went to have a nice, relaxing bath with vanilla oils and bath salt and candles when I went into a trance! I actually meditated by myself! Me actually meditating, whee!! ^^ Anyway, I didn't hear voices this time but I heard the steady beat of my heart, then another one in time with it, then by myself again. It was almost as if my heart was keeping the beat while another one joined in off and on. Then the candle closest to me started flickering a bunch [From what I could tell with my eyes closed.] so I opened them and when I looked at the candle, it stopped flickering. Then I closed my eyes again and it did the same thing.

But, whee! I actually meditated! My theories about this, like why the voices didn't come or something I think, is because I wasn't really listening [Like Amyane said.], and so once I actually concentrated on relaxing, and mind you, the bath helped a lot! The voices went away now that I took the time to rid myself of all my negative energy [I'm just sort of getting over my depression, and I ad a big fall out with my best friend.], so I could feel whole again. Does that make any sense? I'm gonna go and try meditating some more tomorrow to see if it's true. But I'm pretty sure that's what was wrong before. ^^ <3 heart WHOO!!! But now I have a headache, so I'm gonna go and get some tylenol. XDDD

Hey I think I almost managed to enter a trance eek The other day I was playing a game on my PS2 when it froze, however while is was frozen all you could hear was the sound of running water, like a stram or brook. Thing is while I waited for my game to unfreeze I closed my eye and just sat there listening to the running water sound and I statrted to enjoy it, I got my heartbeat tuned in time with the dripping of water that could also be hard and after a while I started to lose some sense of my physical self, but as I was geemingly getting closer to a trance the game unfroze and a bunch of other sounds returned and disturbed me stressed . Does this seem like a trance to anyone? Cuz if so then I can say I gained some practical experience ^_^
