MEDITATION: Why People Meditate

Meditation helps clear your mind of muddling thoughts. It calms you, your body and your thinking and can even cure many stress related illnesses. Most of the diseases people suffer from are stress related. There are many, many benefits to regular meditation. Daily meditation will give you sharper, more alert thinking and better concentration. It improves your focus, your organization and your efficiency. After meditating in the morning you find your day going smoothly.

Meditation can improve your physical health. Studies have shown meditation can lower stress levels, blood pressure, reduce or eliminate some pain, and help those who meditate have a deeper, more refreshing sleep.

If healing is needed, once you feel your deep connection, a guided meditation script can be used to direct your energy and focus to the affected area or condition. Then use mind visualization to see the desired healthy outcome. This can be very powerful whether you are using this to heal yourself or to direct this healing to another person. It is very important to visualize the person as healed - do not focus on the problem.

On a personal or behavioural level, meditation gives you greater emotional balance, increased self control and more self confidence. Obviously this can improve your personal and business relationships and your relationship with yourself.

Meditation for beginners usually starts with 5 - 10 minutes twice a day and, as they find they can go deeper within, it can be lengthened to 20 - 30 minutes twice a day.

These are only suggested times. True meditation is the practice of deep relaxation, clearing your scattered, random thoughts, going into your inner space and into the silence.

Regular meditation is often done as a spiritual practice, however, as you can see, there are many mental and physical benefits that can also be achieved. Do yourself a favor and learn to meditate.
