It’s 10 p.m. on a Wednesday and you just got off work. Tomorrow you have a paper due, which you haven’t even started, your roommate still hasn’t washed the dishes from two days ago, and your bank account has $15. Basically, you feel like you’re going to blow a fuse. So, what are your options? For many students, it’s tempting to hit the bars when times get rough, but next time stress threatens your sobriety, consider a different alternative: meditation.
You don’t have to follow a specific religion or make friends with new-age hippies. Meditation is ideal for anyone who is juggling too much and just needs a breather. In other words, people like you.
Although meditation takes more work than does chugging a few beers to ease your mind, it has many benefits without the hangover or the regrets. Practicing daily meditation for even a few minutes can train your mind to react to stressful events without the emotion or anxiety that amplifies problems. (More)
