Meditation

Meditation has become an excepted practice but it hasn't been always like that..

Most forms of Meditation are easy to learn, and like everything, practice will make you better. It takes up only a little bit of time and offers infinitely more than watching television :-)

Meditators come from all walks of life, yet their claims for meditation are all similar:
general better health, enhanced self-esteem, improved personal relationships, greater job satisfaction, more creativity and clearer thought processes and above all, and virtually unanimously — much less stress in their daily lives.

To an observer, a person in meditation may appear to be asleep. In meditation the body goes almost immediately into a deep state of rest, in which basic metabolism drops very rapidly yet the mind is, in some ways, more alert than in a normal waking state.

 

Twenty minute periods of meditation, is all it takes and good times are early in the morning and again some time before the evening meal. It requires a relatively quiet place, although experienced meditators can meditate almost anywhere, with a comfortable chair and freedom from interruption.

There are many different meditation techniques available, I think using a mantra, or a concentration technique or some visualisation is more suitable for the beginner than immersing yourself in total thoughtlessness. The mind is concentrated on "a technique" and when thoughts intrude, gently brought back to it.

The first result is often experienced within the first few days, stress and former annoyances seem to bother you less and you find yourself more relaxed
