Practising meditation regularly helps to manage stress, reduce anxiety, improve sleep patterns, lower blood pressure and improve overall immunity. It heals the accumulated effects of stress on the mind-body, and transforms our experience of stress in our everyday lives.
Meditation is also a simple practice. Although many people who try it deem it ineffective or think they can’t do it right, this is usually not the case. Often the only thing anyone is doing wrong is judging the experience based on expectations about what should or should be happening.
Although meditation is a process of quieting the mind, this does not mean the mind will be quiet for the entire process. Often the mind is turbulent but there are moments of stillness. And these quiet moments bring profound benefits to the body and the subconscious mind. In time, we eventually start to notice these benefits in our approach to our busy daily lives. Daily meditators report reduced stress, improved health and increased happiness. (MORE)
