Why Should You Meditate

  • Why Should You Meditate

There are dozens of scientifically proven benefits of meditation. Studies confirm the experience of millions of practitioners: meditation will keep you healthy, help prevent multiple diseases, make you emotionally well, and improve your performance in basically any task, physical or mental. Some benefits have found to come as soon as with 8 weeks of daily practice; other benefits take longer to mature, and will depend on your intensity of practice.

Meditation is different to different people.  However, it is usually one of these three things that drive people to practice:

  • Specific Benefit
  • Growth
  • Spiritually

Improving your health, wellness, performance, focus, memory, creativity, self-control, etc.

Personal growth, emotional healing,

Connecting with supreme, transcending the ego, finding peace.

Whatever drives you to meditate, that is good. You will get the benefits you seek, in the proportion of your consistency and commitment to building this habit. But the wider you cast your net, the more fish you will get — so I would encourage you to practice not only for one particular reason, but for the sake of overall well-being.
Your motivation may also evolve by time, as the practice starts to unfold in your life.
