The Benefits of Meditation

Meditating is an ultimate stress reliever and it is extremely therapeutic for the mind, body and soul. It is the process of training your mind to clear itself, completely, of all thoughts. In an article that I read, it stated: ” It’s extremely difficult for a beginner to sit for hours and think of nothing or have an “empty mind.” But in general, the easiest way to begin meditating is by focusing on the breath — an example of one of the most common approaches to meditation: concentration.” With that being said, I have recorded several amazing meditations for you to enjoy, for purchase and download. You can take these meditations anywhere and listen to them on your own time. Learning to meditate takes time and patience. It is a good practice to start with focusing on a single point. Some experts say that focusing on your breath by slowly breathing in and out; clearing all other thoughts is a good way to start. Some of the benefits of meditation are: Lower blood pressure Better sleep Improved blood circulation Less Stress Slower respiratory rate Less nervousness Lower blood cortisol levels Better awareness if your surroundings The most amazing benefit of all is the freeing of the mind and attachment to material things.
