Benefits of Meditation

Start practicing meditation and feel relaxed, peaceful and happy. This is a kind

of inter-generative process.You meditate and you get the reward in forms of joy 

and happiness, which in turn motivates you to meditate more. In course of time, 

it becomes your automatic practice.  You feel uneasy and think something is 

missing from your life if you do not meditate on any particular day. When you 

start your day with meditation, the peace and joy generated last with you 

whole day whatever the nature of your activities.It is like taking a healthy 

and nourishing diet before the start of a strenuous and stressful routine of the day.

Meditation enables you to become aware of your inner resources of joy and peace. You can tap them whenever you feel stressed and worried. You acquire a habit of detached observation. So if something wrong and irritating happens in course of your day, you can view it as a detached observer. You learn to understand the monkey tricks of your mind. You thus get an inner poise that ultimately percolates into your daily life. The peace and joy that you acquire become infectious to those around you. In this way you try to make the whole environment happy and peaceful.

Scientific studies have conclusively proved the benefits of meditation for our mind and body. According to search results released by the University of Wisconsin-Madison, meditation has been shown to produce lasting beneficial changes in immune-system function as well as brain electrical activity. “Researchers found about 50 percent more electrical activity in the left frontal regions of the brains of the meditators. Other research has showed that part of the brain is associated with positive emotions and anxiety reduction.”
