On Meditation

Meditation is a method used by its practitioners to achieve relaxation and focus but what may come along with it is heightened sensory awareness of the five senses. The net result of meditation can change your outlook of life into a positive one. While Meditation is most commonly associated with monks, and other spiritual disciplines. However, you don’t have to be a monk  to meditate. There are enough modern meditation  techniques that don’t necessitate the utilization of mythical aspect or components that associate itself with religious practices. While there are many different approaches to do meditation, the fundamental principles remain the same. The most important principle is to remove obstructive, negative, and wandering thoughts and fantasies, calming the mind with a deep sense of focus. The imparting of religious values in meditation can serve as a moral guideline (but this blog will maintain neutrality to address readers from various background).

Frequent meditation clears the mind of debris (from trauma and stress) and prepares it for higher-quality activity (productivity) Studies have shown that meditation brings beneficial physiological effects to the body. Meditation helps to lower stress levels by reducing the production of stress hormones like cortisol. Lower stress levels make it easier to maintain a positive outlook. When you're less anxious, you can think more clearly and respond to situations with a calm and positive attitude. Meditation has been shown to improve various physical health markers, such as reducing blood pressure and improving immune function. Better physical health can contribute to a better mood and a more positive outlook on life.
