Question for people who meditate? I need some help …..?

I’m a christian but I enjoy meditating because I find it relaxing. I bought a meditation cd and the woman who sold it to me said it was one that ‘took you in, and brought you back out again’. I listen to the cd and try to concentrate as hard as I can but my mind always, without fails, wanders and I start thinking about other things. I can never concentrate completely and then at the end of the cd the woman on it says ’slowly bring yourself back to full consciousness…you’re now becoming more aware of your surroundings..’ etc etc. The problem is, I’m completely aware of my surroundings the entire time, no matter how hard I try. I meditate in a dark room with no noise, and I usually wear an eyemask so I cant open my eyes, but I STILL cant concentrate well enough. How do I become better at meditation, and get ‘taken into it, and brought back out’ as I’m supposed to?

I find that when meditating I become especially aware of my surroundings, in fact I begin to feel as if I’m a part of them. I’m not sure if this is the ‘right’ way, but it’s the way I do it.

The Essence of Christian Meditation $11.6 Christians? Have you ever been told that meditation is not Christian, or that it has no biblical basis? Do you long for a deeper and more personal relationship with God? Today’s Christians have too often misunderstood meditation and its place in their faith tradition. Many of us have heard that meditation belongs only to Buddhism or other Eastern spiritual practices. In this short volume, William E. DeWitt outlines the scriptural basis for meditation and how it allows us to find the Holy Spirit within ourselves. We spend most of our time in our busy minds, but meditation leads us from our minds to our hearts, where Christ lives. Unlike basic meditation, which is often centered on the self, Christian meditation helps us make Christ the center of our lives. It is not a technique, DeWitt emphasizes, but a spiritual discipline. A lifelong Christian, DeWitt discovered later in life that regular meditation adds a rich dimension to his faith, enhancing his understanding of the Bible and deepening his relationship not only with God but with those around him. In simple, straightforward language, he demystifies meditation practice, the greatest experience of God’s grace he has ever known besides salvation itself. If you are seeking a more peaceful heart and greater spiritual fulfillment, learn more about what DeWitt calls this gift from God.

Christian Meditation Inspired by Yoga and "A Course in Miracles" $23.08 Christian Meditation is a sacred activity nourishing your faith that "the Kingdom of God is within you." This comprehensive instruction manual presents unique meditation techniques inspired by yoga that include coordinating the breathing and focusing on different parts of the body. These meditation methods are integrated into an entirely Christian context in which the number one priority is reliance on the action and grace of the Holy Spirit. This book is divided into four parts: Part one describes clear and structured practices of Christian meditation, including the option of a 28-day meditation schedule for beginners to make a specific commitment to their inner spiritual growth. Part two provides guidelines for how intermediate meditators can deepen their meditation experience. Part three focuses on meditation related to overall spiritual growth. Part four shows how to practice meditation as a way of inwardly forgiving yourself as it is described in the philosophy of "A Course in Miracles."Although the word "yoga" is usually translated as "union," it can also be interpreted as "integration." The overall effect of combining traditional Christian attunement methods and nontraditional meditation techniques inspired by yoga is to bring about an integration and unification of the various levels of your being and to deepen your meditation experience. However, these methods are only the beginning of this integration and unification process. The purpose of these meditation techniques is to prepare you for entering wordless contemplation, which is an experience of resting in the embrace of divine love. During contemplation there is an overshadowing of the Holy Spirit in which the mind becomes still without needing a specific focusing object. Through contemplation the Holy Spirit can lead you to a greater degree of integration and unification that will transform you and lead toward your ultimate destiny of awakening to divine union with God.
