Meditation is an ancient
form of relaxation. It can be done through silent prayer, contemplation,
and with movement exercises. Some movement exercises are Tai Chi, Yoga, and
Walking Meditation. Every form of meditation requires concentration and patience.
Meditation can be done anytime of the day. It is recommended to meditate in the
morning or before bedtime.
There are many purposes for doing meditation. It
can release tension, it can make you feel happy, and it calms the mind. In
addition, meditation has some health benefits such as lowering your blood
pressure, clearing the mind, and by helping your sleep pattern. Meditation can
be done by sitting down, laying down, or with a slow movement. Last, meditation
can be done with some breathing exercises, saying words or phrases, and with
the use of sound.
For more information, I
recommend reading Teen Mental Health Meditation, by Andrew Moore, published in
2009, which has some helpful techniques to meditate. Also, I would
recommend reading Web MD and Mayo Clinic for more health information regarding
meditation. Thanks for reading this post.
