What is meditation?

The simple answer is that it is a mental exercise which aims to quieten all of the jumble and chatter that rolls around in our head on a moment to moment basis.

As with physical exercise this can come in many forms, and to get better at it you will need to practice. 

There are lots of different types of meditation exercises and there will be one to suit you.

Each style of meditation uses different techniques to help you to quieten your mind. Some lead the mind through a process or a visualisation, others encourage the mind to focus on a physical object, the breath, a sound or a movement. 

Whatever style you try, the outcome is the same. Meditation is a technique that helps us to withdraw, not only from the distractions of our outer world but from the chatter of our inner voice, to find space and peace within.

It can be challenging and takes practice, but there are so many physical and mental health benefits, so taking the time to start is worth it.

WHY MEDITATE?

By allowing ourselves to withdraw into a state of peace without any distraction we have the opportunity to bear witness to our thoughts and judgements as they pass us by.

This is so beneficial to our mental health and wellbeing as it helps us to notice and observe any struggles we are having on a particular day, to notice how our mind and body feels and to help us to be non judgemental and compassionate to ourselves.

Meditation also gives us the opportunity to rest our mind. Our modern lifestyles overload our senses and this can be draining. The practice of meditation helps us to reset and avoid burnout by giving our mind the opportunity to take some well deserved time out.

For some of us the thought of quieting our mind, slowing down and sitting still can actually be quite scary. When life is a struggle, distraction can feel like the only way to get through the day . But the reality is that living in a high state of stimulation 24 / 7 is exhausting! Our mind needs to rest as much as our body and our mental health is just as important as our physical health. 

Why not give it a go, start with 5 minutes a day.
