ESSENTIAL LIFE SKILLS // MEDITATION
> In case of emergency, read quickly.
A simple change in the way you perceive life can have a lasting effect. This simple change can be achieved through meditation.
Meditation can affect a person on three levels: physically, mentally and spiritually, says Dmitry Denisenko, a Lawrence-based primordial sound meditation instructor.
Primordial sound meditation involves a mantra, a word or sound that is repeated to allow the person who is meditating to concentrate. A special pose or posture is not necessary in primordial sound meditation, only a comfortable position that will allow you to clear your mind.

Meditation, if practiced on a daily basis, can create inner peace and an inner sense of well being. Denisenko recommends meditating twice a day for 30 minutes, preferably at the beginning and end of the day. The effects will not be immediately recognized, but over time you will begin to feel less stressed and less emotionally attached to situations, Denisenko says.
Ohmmmm: Meditation can create an inner peace and well-being. It's great to relieve the daily stresses of school or work.
Meditation takes practice, Denisenko says. "People tend to quit after several weeks, but if you stick with it over time, it becomes a part of your routine for the rest of your life."
Eventually meditation will quiet down the mind's constant activity, creating a clear focus for the person meditating. "I don't stress out anymore." Denisenko says. "I perceive things differently. It's amazing knowing that meditation will create life long positive benefits for those who practice it."

Ashely Martin caught a classic way-outside-the-lines parking job near Corbin Hall. Looking at the picture she took on her cell phone, Martin, Wichita senior, chuckles. Her friends call her a parking queen.

ESSENTIAL LIFE SKILLS // PARALLEL PARKING
But in three easy steps, no one will be laughing at your perfectly parallel-parked car.
Larry Krull, owner of Midwest Driving School, 1514 E. 24th St., gives these steps:
2) Reverse the car straight back until your tires are even with the end of the other car. Then, quickly turn your steering wheel to the right. Continue to back up at a 45 degree angle.
1) Pull even to the car in front of the spot you are aiming for, leaving about two to three feet on the side.
3) When the front of your car has cleared the back of the other car, quickly turn your wheel to the left. Then, slowly swing your car into the parallel parking spot.
"The key to making all work is quick with the steering and slow with the car." Krull says. If the car isn't quite in the right position, Krull says to readjust by steering back to the right. The car should rest about
16 to 18 inches from the curb - farther away is illegal.
Though there isn't a lot of parallel parking around town, Krull says he sees some bad attempts when people try to pull in front first.
Martin, the parking queen, says driving a smaller car, practicing, and having friends guide you can help ensure a legal and accident-free parallel parking job on those tricky side streets.
