Yoga and meditation has numerous health benefits. Be it relieving stress and improving your mood or helping you to manage your anger and emotional low down, meditation can help you in a long way. And one such uncommon use of meditation is to help people dealing with drug addiction. Tratak meditation method is one of the very powerful ancient practice that can help a person to make some very significant spiritual progress. This is very essential to get out of drug addiction.

Here’s the procedure for Tratak meditation:

  1. Light a candle in your meditation room or wherever you are comfortable.
  2. Sit in an upright position in a chair, or on the floor cross legged, or in Padmasana to ensure that the spine stays erect and that inner energy can flow easily through the subtle channels of the body.
  3. It is recommended that the flame be kept according to the height of the person practicing it. If the person is 5.6”, the candle should be 5.6” away from the face, and at eye level.
  4. Begin by taking a few deep breaths. Focus your eyes on the flame and keep your gaze without blinking for as long as you can. You may start to feel tears develop in the eyes. Producing tears is said to have many beneficial effects.
  5. Keep your eyes focused. Gaze gently at the flame, not the candle. Let your vision stay with the flame.
  6. If thoughts arise, simply acknowledge them and let them go.
  7. Do this for a maximum of 5 minutes for few days to see the difference.
