What is your favorite technique to calm down the restlessness of your mind?

For me, when I practice Ramana Maharshi's Self Inquiry and put my inner attention on the 'I am' feeling, I experience a subsiding of my mental noise.

How about you?

I have had great experiences with meditation on different koans (who am I, what is the other, what is the life...).
Meditation is nice, and cognitions, and emotional releases I had were great.

Eny other experiences? I am really interested in this topic.

What kind of meditation do you follow? Did it help you? Did you try several forms of meditation?

I use an Herbal Blend while meditating, it gives an aromatic fragrance which purifies the air and improves my concentration.

The heart soul meditation takes me very deep, connecting me to soul consciousness. I was trying to add the link here but I get a spam warning. If you want to try it then just google it.

Almost everyone would like answers to some of the really tough questions life makes us ask.

Why do bad things happen to good people?

Why do people die when they are still needed?

Why is there suffering in the world?
