Techniques of Dynamic meditation The following is correct and most effective version of dynamic meditation technique. It has four stages, each lasting ten minutes. Phase 1: Begin by standing with your eyes closed and take deep, fast breaths through your nostrils for around 10 minutes.

Phase 3: In the third phase the practitioner jumps up and down screaming: Hoo, hoo, hoo continually for around 10 minutes.

In this phase it is imperative that you keep your arms naturally loose. Don’t hold them over your head since that position could be dangerous – medically. Phase 4: The fourth 10 minute phase consists of total quiet and relaxation. You are supposed to collapse on your back, be comfortable and just let go. Counterfeit a dead man (Shavasana), absolutely surrendered to the universe. In this phase you take pleasure in the awesome energy you have let loose in the first three phases and become a silent spectator to the great waters as they flow into the drop; you are supposed to become the ocean.
