Meditation Benefits
There are so many positive effects of a regular meditation practice including: relaxation, calmness and optimism, increase in attention, concentration, creativity, motivation, acceptance, empathy and compassion of self and others.
In meditation thoughts decrease and the mind becomes quieter. Energy previously utilized by the thinking process, is released and energizes the brain. An energized brain is a happy, active, and attentive brain with open senses, and clear and enhanced perception.
