Meditation may sound “New Age,” but it is actually more than 5,000 years old and has been clinically proven to help both physical and mental health.
It may sound weird, mysterious or difficult, but it is a lot easier than you think.
The word meditate means to think, so meditation is the process of thinking. What you think about will depend on the kind of meditation you are doing. There are many different kinds, but the most basic is a breathing meditation, in which you focus on your breath in order to calm your normally racing thoughts. This can stress you less and give you more clarity of mind.
Another popular meditation these days is mindfulness meditation, which can be described as ‘living in the moment’. Mindfulness teaches you to focus on your life moment by moment rather than living on ‘autopilot’.
If you’re feeling stressed all the time, or feel stuck in your life in some way, meditation could be just what you need to open up a whole new range of possibilities within yourself.
