5 GREAT

BENEFITS OF
MEDITATION

IT REDUCES
STRESS
And it controls anxiety
If stress has you tense and worried,
consider trying meditation to bring about
a sense of balance, serenity and calmness.
This simple technique, even if practiced
for a few minutes a day, can help do away
with lots of unwanted baggage. The
results, though, may not be noticeable at
one go, but surely make their presence
felt over a period of time.
IT POWERS UP
YOUR BRAIN
May slow deterioration
Studies have shown increase in neurons
in the hippocampus (learning and
memory) and neurons & neuronal
connections in right frontal cortex
(concentration), right insula (emotions),
and right parietal and temporal lobes
(touch and sound). A study showed
increase of gray matter. Meditation may
slow natural brain deterioration.

LOWERS BLOOD HELPS YOU

PRESSURE
Promotes relaxation
Meditation has been shown to promote
relaxation. By using meditation to
manage your BP, you may be able to
boost your defense against heart disease,
stroke and chronic kidney disease.
However, a study has concluded that
meditation alone does not lower BP.
Factors such as reducing salt intake,
losing weight and medication have
invariably been at work in different cases.
SLEEP BETTER
May help treat insomnia
Experienced meditators have been found
to be sleeping fewer hours than non-
meditators and the general population,
but are no less alert. Thousands of studies
have found that meditation helps deal
with sleep problems, and could help
reverse even the worst cases of insomnia.
In fact, studies show that experienced
meditators have far fewer insomnia
causing beta brainwaves.

MAKES YOU
HAPPIER
And healthier too!
Meditation can enhance levels of certain
feel-good chemicals in your body, such as
endorphins and serotonin. According to
Psychology Today, meditation is the
strongest mental practice that has the
power to reset your happiness set point,
thus turning you into a more joyful
person. And it has been found to increase
electrical activity in the left side of your
brain, a part that acts as a command
center for your immune system.
