Meditations have worked wonders in my journey. Although it did take me a while to get into a deep meditated state. Just like anything it will take practice, so don't get discouraged when you don't see results right away. I have heard good things about Dr Emmet Miller's meditation dvd's, I'm about to get some of them.
I try to meditate twice a day for about 20 to 30 minutes. Some days it's hard with work family and kids, but I usually at least get one meditation in. I usually do it in the morning and evening.
