Meditation

Meditation is a reset button for your mind.


 Over scheduled, over committed, overstimulated, over the top=stress!!!

Taking a daily break to meditate is a way to physically and mentally recharge. 

Mediation is a practice that will help your well-being.  

It will help you think more clearly, so you can make better choices.


It is good for the mind, body and soul.



Good for the body:

Lower cholesterol
Curb insomnia
Boost immune system
Reduce depression
Alleviate stress
Enhance memory
Lower high blood pressure
Ease pain
Speed healing
Reduce symptoms of PMS and menopause.

These are just some of the benefits for the body.  Meditation also relieves anxiety, regulates hormones, including reducing cortisol, the stress hormone.

Good for the mind:

Because the mind and body are connected, when the mind settles, so does the body.  Those who meditate report a greater sense of inner peace, that feeling of well being, calm and happiness.  Higher levels of self esteem, ability to focus and able to make better decisions are also reported by people with a regular practice of mediation.  Fear and anxiety will lessen.  You will feel more calm and centered, which will have a good affect on your relationships at home and in the world.


Good for the soul:

Spiritual benefits include a peaceful mind and increased intuition.  In meditation, you learn about your true self, with no labels.  You access more energy and creativity.


Even a few minutes of meditation every day can help. 

Don't know where to start? 
There are classes, CD's, books, apps to download and many other ways to learn how to meditate.  Find a meditation that you like, keep practicing and you will feel happier. 


Ommmmmmmmm...........
