I have worked with a variety of people, both one-on-one and in groups who feel that they just can't meditate for various reasons. They can't:
1-Sit still
2-Focus their mind
3-Let go of all the thoughts that they have running around in their head
4-Not be productive and let go of their To-Do List
5-Find the time
6-Understand the benefits
7-Create the setting
As a long time meditator, I think the benefits are many. Some of the benefits of meditating are:
1-Feeling peaceful, calm & emotionally-centered (not to be confused with tired!)
2-Enhances mental clarity and ability to focus
3-Provides solutions to problems
4-Increases productivity
5-Boosts immune system, energy, strength & vigor
6-Enhances the healing process & optimizes any treatment plan
7-Enables you to be in the moment with people, or any situation (after a period of time)
8-Allows you to appreciate your life & relationships
9-Improved performance in school, atheletics & public appearances
10-Reduces PMS
11-Harmonizes the endocrine system
12-Helps with weight loss
13-Great for the respiratory system-lowers oxygen consumption, lowers B/P
14-Reduces anxiety
15-Enhances fertility
16-Builds self-confidence
17-Develops inner wisdom & intuition
18-Greater tolerance
19-Increases life's opportunities (able to see beyond what is in front of you)
20-Creates a deeper spiritual relationship & a feeling on 'Oneness'
If this peaks your interest, as there are so many more benefits than what I listed, then there is no reason not to give meditation a try. According to Stephen Covey, it takes 30 days to either add a new positive habit or stop a negative habit!
If you feel that you need some help getting started, my next blog will share an easy method for you to try at home!
