SDV: The main difference between Mama-meditation and mindfulness meditation is the approach and aim of the practice.

In contrast, Mama-meditation is not an individual act of meditation, but a method to allow the universal spiritual entity known as Mama to meditate through the person, transcending their mind and connecting them to their true essence. It aims to establish a living connection between one's true self and the external world, enabling individuals to bridge the gap between the two and fostering a deeper understanding of their true nature and the world around them.

17. Anna: Why and how does Mama-meditation work?
SVD: Mama-meditation works by establishing a living connection between an individual's true self and their external circumstances. This approach allows one to experience the subjective and objective aspects of their existence in a harmonious manner.

The practice has been shown to have numerous physical and mental health benefits, including improving sleep, reducing blood pressure, and increasing focus and concentration.
The precise mechanisms by which Mama-meditation works are not fully understood, but it is believed to involve changes in brain activity and the release of certain neurotransmitters and hormones.

Some studies suggest that regular meditation practice in general can have positive effects on the brain.

20. Aigul: Can Mama-meditation replace sleep?
SVD: No, Mama-meditation cannot replace sleep. While meditation can promote relaxation and reduce stress, it cannot replace the physical and mental restorative benefits of sleep. The body and mind require sleep to heal and repair themselves, and lack of sleep can have negative effects on one’s physical health, mental health, and cognitive function. While Mama-meditation can be a helpful tool in promoting overall well-being and managing stress, it cannot fully replace the essential role that sleep plays in our lives. It is important to prioritize both meditation and sleep for optimal health and well-being.
21. Sara: When does Mama-meditation not work?
SVD:
While Mama-meditation can be a helpful tool for many people, there might be instances when it does not work or is not effective. Here are some reasons why Mama-meditation might not work for someone:
-
Lack of regular practice: To experience its benefits, one must regularly and consistently practice Mama-meditation. If someone is not practicing regularly, they might not see the desired results.
-
Unresolved emotional or psychological issues: Mama-meditation can be a helpful tool for managing emotions and improving mental health, but it might not be enough on its own for those with more significant emotional or psychological issues. In such cases, it might be helpful to seek additional support from a mental health professional.
-
Resistance or lack of openness: If someone is resistant or closed off to the idea of meditation or inner work, they might not be able to fully engage with Mama-meditation.
-
Physical limitations: Mama-meditation involves sitting in a still position for extended periods, which might not be feasible for individuals with certain physical limitations or health conditions.
It is important to note that Mama-meditation is not a one-size-fits-all solution and might not work for everyone in every situation. Listen to your body and mind and seek the best tools and resources for your individual needs.

There is no one "best" meditation technique that works for everyone. Different people might find different techniques to be more effective depending on their individual needs and preferences. Some popular meditation techniques include mindfulness meditation, transcendental meditation, loving-kindness meditation, and yoga meditation.
Mama-meditation is a unique technique that focuses on connecting with the energy of the Divine Mother, or "Mama," within oneself.

26. Ann: Are meditation and mindfulness the same things in the context of Mama-meditation?
SVD:
Meditation and mindfulness are related but are not the same things in the context of Mama-meditation.
Meditation refers to a broader category of practices that involve training the mind to achieve a state of calmness, focus, and inner peace. There are various forms of meditation, including mindfulness meditation, mantra meditation, and visualisation meditation, among others. Mama-meditation is a specific type of meditation that emphasises the connection with the inner self, the release of tension, and the experience of transcendence.
Mindfulness, on the other hand, is a mental state characterized by the ability to pay attention to the present moment without judgment or distraction. Mindfulness can be developed through meditation practice, but it can also be applied in daily life by being aware of one's thoughts, emotions, and sensations in the present moment. In the context of Mama-meditation, mindfulness is an important aspect of the practice, but it is not the only focus. Mama-meditation also involves the release of tension, the experience of transcendence, and the connection with the inner self.

SDV:
While there is no specific diet for practicing Mama-meditation, it is recommended that you consume a healthy and balanced diet to support your overall well-being.

Maintaining proper hydration levels by drinking an ample amount of water throughout the day is also crucial.
Some people might find that certain foods, such as caffeine or sugar, can affect their ability to focus during meditation. Therefore, it might be helpful to experiment with your diet to see what works best for you.
Additionally, it is recommended that you avoid consuming heavy meals immediately before meditation practice, as this can lead to discomfort or distraction.
