Meditation And Its Benefits.!!


Meditation is an exercise with numerous benefits. It is proven to be an effective way of enhancing quality of life by improving physical, mental, and emotional well being. 

The mind, heart, and body can improve with regular meditation. Now a days meditation has gained millions of converts and helping most of people to ease chronic pain, anxiety, stress, improve heart health, boost mood and immunity, and resolve pregnancy problems.

To understand meditation through an experiment, take a camera and take two pictures. Hold your camera still and take one picture.

Now, while shaking your camera take the second picture.

Have you observed the picture quality.?

The difference in clarity between the two pictures is the difference in clarity of a life with and without meditation.

Developing a regular practice to do meditation leads to the creation of a virtual bulletproof vest for our physical, mental, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual health.

Meditation means different things to different people. There are dozens of types, styles, and schools of thoughts on meditation. There are many methods prescribed like Transcendental Meditation, Vipassana, and Zazen etc., to reach the state of meditation. 

Our intention in this Life School Message is not to compare different practices. What we'd like to do is to give you a glimpse into what benefits can arise as a result of meditation.

One of the most important functions for human survival is the ability to adapt and adjust to our surroundings. The brain and body are dealing with an unbelievable amount of stimuli every single moment of life. Focusing on all of them at once would be impossible. So, the mind tends to shift as many stimuli as possible to the sub-conscious back burner.

For example: You probably aren't paying attention to the feel of your dress/attire until you read this sentence. Now that I've mentioned it, I've brought it back into your conscious thoughts, and you do notice it. Somewhere in the next few paragraphs, your mind will place it on the back burner again to be able to focus on understanding this whole article. Fascinating, isn't it? Our minds do this constantly.

Meditation helps you to increase your awareness and helps you to stay focused on the right things of life. It ensures you do not get distracted and helps you to stay alert. It helps you to understand the past, live the present and create the future.

For the uninitiated, we come up with the most powerful basic methods that can lead you to meditation.
  1. Wash your face and sit in a comfortable position.
  2. Close your eyes. As you breathe in normally, watch the gentle rise of your belly around your cute belly button.
  3. Hold your breathe in for a few moments. Exhale slowly. Watch your belly contract just that little bit.
  4. Enjoy a brief pause before inhaling again.
  5. Repeat this process about 21 times. Don't worry about keeping count, the number of breaths is unimportant. Focus only on the breath, as if it were the only thing that existed in the universe.
  6. Go ahead and do it now.
Stop reading and do it! No cheating please..! keep this as your daily routine..!!!
