Mediate . Relax. Repeat !

Meditation has come into a modern day transformation by knocking its hippy stereotype and becoming more commonly accepted in todays' world. Mediation has been scientifically proven to reduce stress, help control appetite and metabolism levels ( yes shocking but true ) and overall rate of happiness.

Meditation is not difficult, but like all skills it will take time and practice. It is all about developing the ability to produce a meditative, very relax state in a small amount of time. Meditation can be bought on through several practices such as,

1. Mindfulness : ‘being present’, letting your mind run, and accepting whatever thoughts come up, while practicing detachment from each thought.

2. Zazen: is the generic term for seated meditation in the Buddhist tradition, but in the modern Zen tradition, it is often referred to as ‘just sitting’. It is a minimal kind of meditation, done for long periods of time

3.Guided visualization: is a popular form of meditation that involves concentration upon an image or imaginary environment. It is usually done while listening to a recording.
