The Benefits Of Meditation

benefits

Meditation plays a large part in Eastern philosophies and religions.  Later on, the West also got hold of it and realized that it has a lot of health benefits.

The one thing students and those who work deal with every day is stress.  Meditation for just 15 minutes or even longer allows you to relax and later enables you to make an effective decision.  It also lowers the level of stress anxiety in your system thus decreasing the risks of heart disease significantly.

The practice of meditation also makes you self-aware of what is happening around you.  This enables you to focus on the present rather than events that happened in the past or the future.  It teaches you to be in control of your mind and not make you do anything based on your emotions.

Believe it or not, meditation also develops insight into our subconscious.  This is because our attitudes, behaviour, feelings, and perceptions are all connected and if you can harness it, you will be able to understand yourself better.

This allows you to have a positive outlook in life and even make changes in yourself. You become content or thankful with what you have instead of harbouring feelings of anger, anxiety, greed, hatred and jealousy towards yourself and others.

You will also be able to see the big picture instead of the small one when given a task at work so even if there are a few setbacks along the way, you are still able to keep your eye on the end game.

Medication can also make you feel younger.  This is because, in one study, people who have been practicing this for many years were physiologically 12 years younger than their chronological age.  The results of the test were based on the test subject's auditory discrimination, blood pressure, and eyesight.

So now that you know the benefits of meditation and what it can do, you are probably asking yourself right now how does it work?  Well, let us first correct the common misconception about meditation.

A lot of people think that you have to sit in a pretzel position or go off to some faraway place to make this work.  The truth is that you just have to find a quiet place where you wo t be disturbed, sit on the floor or on a chair in whatever position you like best, and slowly clear your mind of all thoughts.

You should keep in mind that sitting in a comfortable position may sometimes make you doze off.  So concentrate otherwise it defeats the purpose of this exercise.

Next, you should close your eyes, focus on your breathing, and let the positive air go in and the negative thoughts go out.  You might hear sounds nearby and since you cant do anything about that, just acknowledge that it is there and just concentrate on this exercise.

This can be done at work or home and how long it will be done depends on you. Some people may start for 5 minutes and then extend the time in the future.  The important thing is that you feel recharged and ready to take on whatever challenge is out there when you are ready to open your eyes.

As you exhale, listen to the sound and associate it with the word Ham.  As a guide, So sounds as if you are saying it in English.  Ham could be written as Hom, as the in Ham is very weak.

Meditation is one of the most important spiritual disciplines.  The benefits of regular meditation are numerous, too many to list, yet peace of mind is one of the greatest.

Avoid all drugs.  Even “just” marijuana “only once in a while” hinders intuition and clouds your mind for weeks afterward.

Try meditating with someone you love or with a group of friends.  The combined energy will help you go deeper.

You may be sensitive to something you’re eating or drinking.  Pick a day and eat lightly, perhaps about half of what you usually do.  Consume what you know, such as lightly steamed vegetables, will be easy to digest.

You should be able to focus more easily provided you feel lighter and more alert.

Certain supplements, herbs, and medications, especially if they affect your mood, may be disagreeing with your system and causing you to be scattered.  Ask your doctor or health professional for alternative recommendations or if you can do without them.  If you keep asking God or your guides or angels of the Light how you can be more successful with meditation, you’ll eventually become aware of effective ways to go deeper and focus better.

You’ll be a pro in no time.

If you’re still having trouble perceiving anything, jump-start the process by using your imagination.  Tell yourself you’ll perceive the first image, thought, or feeling, in response to any of the questions or instructions in the script, on the count of three. Then count one, two, three, and provide a picture or thought from your imagination or memory.  Continue this process until other images that feel more related to the issue you are exploring start filtering into your mind.

Try relaxing music.  Experiment with different kinds to test which works best for you.

Whatever works the best for you is what you should be thinking of trying out. Meditation can change your life for the better and once you begin feeling better you will know that you made the best choices by choosing this to help you along the way throughout this difficult life.

Learn more about meditation the next chance that you can because your life will be ever-changing because of it.

There is more to be learned about it even to this day.  Things are going to be different in your life and meditation can be the reason for your healing and becoming a much more positive person that is happier and healthier.
