How Meditation Works
Meditation is practiced by more than 15 million Americans and many more people around the world. It has its roots in eastern culture, but has been wholeheartedly embraced in western societies. Studies have shown the meditation can improve your health.
Meditation involves stopping your mind while maintaining a state of awareness. It is much more than sitting and concentrating in a quiet area for a certain amount of time. It involves clearing your mind of all thoughts, achieving a deep inward peace, and maintaining alertness in the process.
People often use certain postures, breathing techniques, and even chants to help facilitate the process, but these are not required, and they are not the act of meditation itself, just support tools.
