First, I humbly thank you for stating that I made an "awesome post." A compliment like this coming from a fellow of the Magickal Arts, is an honor.
However, at the top of my mini-lesson I had stated;
"In meditation, you clear your mind then, you can think of just your breathing and hum "aum" for awhile. This is kind of boring so, as an alternative, one can choose to train their mind in another method of meditation, which is holding "one serene scene" in your mind." The ALTERNATIVE method of meditation is visualization, both. It is both. The one where;"you can think of just your breathing and hum "aum" for awhile." This is meditation alone. To form an image in one's mind is, visualization. To form a peaceful, serene scene image and, holding it there for awhile, and quieting the mind at the same time, THAT is both. I chose to instruct her on a friendlier method of meditation. She is not training to be a Tibetan Monk. It is enough to clear the mind and just hold one thought. And, she does not have to be a master at this. "Good enough" works just fine for spell casting.

And, I am not stating this to offend you in any way.

ABCdeeznuts;
The whole point of this mediation/visualization exercise is to RELAX. Take it easy. Breathe easy, inhaling through your nose and breathe out with your mouth. If you breathe fast, you WILL get dizzy, and your nose will hurt. Easy does it. No hurry. You are training your mind and your body to control them as you want. This is new to your body so, take it easy. And, the whole point as I have stated, is to hold just one thought, without any extra thoughts running around in your mind or, your mind just wants you to lose interest in your focus of one thought, which a Tibetan Monk once referred to this as "quieting the chattering monkey."
The fact that you felt good afterwards, is a good start. Keep it up. As I stated earlier, start with one minute, then two, then three, then four, then stop at five minutes. If you want to, you can go longer.
I hope this helps. Blessed Be.

My apologies on the bullets, as answering the same question repetitively often results that way.

And my sentiments exact Forte, thank you. The way the question was stated involved visualization, not to be confused with meditation as there is a distinct difference between the two.

Though excellent posts on both ideas. :)
