I’m kinda feel frustrated lately due to workload and studies, not sure what kind of life path I want.Guess that some of you might have similar experience throughout your life. And I remembered one of my close friend suggested that I should try to practice meditation. I really don’t have a clue on meditation. So what I always do is ask Mr. Google. Currently I am doing a simple research on what is meditation and later on what benefits if I practice meditation.
Meditation is a group of techniques for mental training. Meditation can help to improve mental health and capacities as well as physical health. Some of the techniques can be learn through book, article or youtube, which is simple to follow up. Others might need guidance from those qualified meditation teacher.
Although there are many kinds of meditation methods, basically, meditation involves a calm state of mind with deep focus. There are some meditation involve in maintaining thoughts awareness in the mind, but not pursuing them. Other forms involve in deep focused attention to a mantra, breath or candle flame. The purpose of these is to bring the mind into a stage where it is slow down or stop, in order to achieve access to the inner peace within you. It is also possible to alter the state of awareness around you.
Control your mind. Practice to control your mind instead of it controlling you. You can achieve everything when your mind is in controlled. Meditation is more to focusing on a certain thought. It does not allow you to race with many thoughts and without direction. It pulls you back to focus on a certain thought or idea.
How meditation will affect your well-being? Through practicing meditation, people learn to listen to their inner-self and recognize their own strength and weakness. It helps in strengthen the potential self inner healing power of the human body. As we know, our mind have very big potential power, and through meditation, we can enhance the power on the mind. Meditation can also help in getting back the balance when you feel stressed, lose focus or tired.
Of course, practicing meditation requires commitment and determination. Starting may not easy for you. But I’m sure that if you really want to make a better changes in your life and intend to practice meditation consistently, you will surely see the good effects in your daily life.
Through life, we all have good and bad experience. This is part of the journey through life, and through those experiences that help us learn and grow. Be positive in your life. No matter the experience is good or bad, it happened for a reason. Learned as much as possible from it. That’s why through meditation, we will learn to accept all our life experience, no matter it is good or bad, we accept it as experiences. We try to strive happiness and peace in our life by accepting all aspects in our life. This is why meditation is so powerful as it helps in achieving all these.
