  • January 13, 2015
  • by Katarzyna Haberko-Sandaire

There are many ways to meditate and there are many resources and guidelines available on the internet, on CDs, in books. It does not mater which style and medium you choose to suite your needs. All you need is a few minutes (5 to begin with then increase gradually) of alone quiet time and consistency. As with anything in life- practice makes perfect. So the more you explore which style or method is right for you, the more you practice your meditation; the more benefits you will experience.
Mental Benefits of Meditation
Meditation brings the brainwave pattern into an Alpha state that promotes healing. The mind becomes fresh, delicate and beautiful. With regular practice of meditation:
* Anxiety decreases
* Emotional stability improves
* Creativity increases
* Happiness increases
* Intuition develops
* Gain clarity and peace of mind
* Problems become smaller
* Meditation sharpens the mind by gaining focus and expands through relaxation
Physical Benefits of Meditation
With meditation, the physiology undergoes a change and every cell in the body is filled with more prana (energy). This results in joy, peace, enthusiasm as the level of prana in the body increases.
On a physical level, meditation:
* Lowers high blood pressure
* Lowers the levels of blood lactate, reducing anxiety attacks
* Decreases any tension-related pain, such as, tension headaches, ulcers, insomnia, muscle and joint problems
* Increases serotonin production that improves mood and behavior
* Improves the immune system
* Increases the energy level, as you gain an inner source of energy
