Meditation & Relaxation
Mindfulness meditation is aimed at finding a peacefulness and stillness beneath the mental activity of the brain. Put simply, it is about creating awareness. It is training for the mind to wake up, pay attention, be acute, consciously conscious…mindful.
Meditation should be easy but it takes practice and perseverance in order to be effective. When practiced regularly and effectively, mindfulness can help deal with a range of problems.
There is evidence to support that those who practice can:
Improve immunity
Reduce stress, anxiety and depression
Get greater ability to resolve workplace issues
Increase empathy
Improve knowledge about stress
Improve sleep
Improve sensitivity towards oneself and towards others
Reduce a sense of isolation
Gain greater use of positive coping skills such as engaging and prioritizing, and less use of negative coping skills such as avoidance
Have enhanced ability to cope with cancer and related symptoms
Help treat fibromyalgia
Help reduce chronic pain
Preserve and possibly regenerate nerve cells in some parts of the brain
Treat obsessive-compulsive disorder and personality disorder
