Meditation

Hello everyone, Today, we are going to know about MEDITATION. In today’s blog we will have fun understanding meditation. We will get to know about: What is meditation, How to meditate, Why to do meditation etc...

Meditation isn’t about becoming a different person, a new person, or even a better person. It’s about training in awareness and getting a healthy sense of perspective. You’re not trying to turn off your thoughts or feelings. You’re learning to observe them without judgment. And eventually, you may start to better understand them as well.

• Be sure you’re in a comfortable position; little nagging discomforts like scratchy clothes or an awkward sitting position can be a distraction from meditation.

• Try not to get too focused on whether you’re ‘doing it right’. (This can actually make meditation more stressful!) Thoughts may often enter your head; the process of redirecting your focus to the present moment is where the benefit comes.

• Play meditation music or use aromatherapy to enhance your practice. They aren’t necessary, but they can add to your experience if you can conveniently incorporate them.

• Practice frequent meditation as a wonderful and effective stress management tool. Meditation has been used for both short-term calming (it can reverse your stress response pretty quickly) and long-term resilience (regular practice can help you become less reactive to stress),

• Try to fit in longer meditation sessions (like 20 minutes or more) a few times per week for best results. Then, you will be more practiced with meditation in general, and these 5-minute sessions will have more of an impact when you need them!

• Gaining a new perspective on stressful situations.

• Building skills to manage your stress.

• Increasing self-awareness.

• Focusing on the present.

• Reducing negative emotions.

• Increasing imagination and creativity.

• Increasing patience and tolerance.

There are 9 types of meditation:-

• mindfulness meditation.

• spiritual meditation.

• focused meditation.

• movement meditation.

• mantra meditation.

• transcendental meditation.

• progressive relaxation.

• loving-kindness meditation.

• visualization meditation

Many people think of it as a way to reduce stress and develop concentration. People also use the practice to develop other beneficial habits and feelings, such as a positive mood and outlook, self-discipline, healthy sleep patterns, and even increased pain tolerance.

So now, let's Meditate with clear mind!
