A good idea for a thread, MD!
I just recently got back into meditation. It was about a year ago when I was meditating regularly. I pretty much practice the same type of meditation that I did a year ago. It's a zen technique called, shikantaza. You just basically let any thought come to your mind while meditating. It's commonly referred to as a method-less method for meditating. It seems kind of pointless when you first hear about it, but trust me when I say that I've been able to get in touch with the Source many times while using that technique. It's a very effective "method." I've found it to be much more effective than mindfulness with its focus on the breath. I almost see it as tricking your mind into meditating by telling it that it's not meditating.
Here's the Wikipedia article:

My goal is to constantly realign with the Source until I'm able to do it in my daily life.
