The Effects of Meditation and Taking the Journey to Explore Yourself...
Hello, dear Steemians!
In this modern society, we live busy and convoluted lives. Tension and pressure are faithful companions of such lifestyle as the one we are experiencing nowadays.
Our everyday experience of human interaction contributes greatly to our ever-growing sense of anxiety and stress. Our workload weighs heavily on the peace of our mind. Our relationships require constant attention and dedication to thrive.
How could we scold someone for becoming a living carcass of exhaustion and dread in this hell of our own making?
But such traumas, little or big, are an inevitable fruit of society. In a situation like this, a wise man seeks help to mend his mind and soul and shield it against the raging storm outside.
You do not necessarily have to pursue spirituality to attain peace of mind. Your mere negligence towards knowledge greater than your current understanding might just be enough to strip you of blessings that could make life more enjoyable or at the very least, easier.
A lot of people reject meditation because they are too busy to try it. Little do they know that meditation is actually one of the most useful tools for busy people and their distinctive lifestyles. Taking a couple of minutes every day to reflect on yourself and your journey while dismissing all your distractive thoughts is as pleasant as it is beneficial.
One of the most interesting effects of meditation is giving you perspective. We often live in thought bubbles that reduce our outlook to our limited experience of the past few weeks.
Meditation can effectively eliminate this thought bubble and give your mind freedom to explore new approaches and perspectives to deal with your problems and make decisions based on the greatest command of your common sense.
Our competence in completing a task, coming up with an idea, or making a decision greatly depends on our ability to focus. Meditation can proficiently take care of your distractions and increase your attention. If you turn meditation to a habit, it will continually contribute to your ability to focus on particular tasks so as to not get easily distracted by your thoughts or problems.
Anxiety and stress are usually products of overthinking and erroneous trains of thought. Without the utilization of proper tools, these problematic thoughts grow bigger and stronger within the boundaries of our consciousness and turn into obstacles in our way.
Meditation can reduce your stress by stealing your attention from such erroneous thoughts by giving more legitimacy to the peace of your mind.
Research has shown that people who tend to meditate grow their consciousness to a powerhouse and are more capable of controlling their emotions in times of crisis.
Meditation has proven to improve our memory and cognitive functions. It is no surprise that peace of mind can be of utmost importance to the health of our brain, and meditation is one of the ways to achieve that state of tranquility.
Meditation is a practice of consciousness and a vast realm of peace and comfort. There are many methods with which one can meditate.
I am merely here to convince you that you should give it a chance, and it is up to you to research its knowledge and learn its ways.
By studying the methods of meditation and bringing it to your daily life, you will greatly enhance your capabilities and improve your general health. Do this, and you will find that the result is both unexpected and baffling to behold!
A BIG HUG!

Dear Stemmians from this community are doing a great job with meaningful comments. I would like your attention not to vote for comments that do not require effort. Do not waste your votes so you do not have the effort to comment because you are an opportunist wanting to take advantage of the generosity of this community receiving votes without any effort, you can be a spammer, a lazy, or someone who did not even read the post. I have also noticed that some people post the comment twice. I want to believe that this is just a distraction and not with the intention of getting 2 upvotes. Please, this community and you who are already with me on this blog know that we should be meritocrates, and develop our Positive Mindset and be generous with each other. People think I do not see the comments, but I read them and please do not try to be clever in this blog. I decided to make this comment to warn you about it. Here there is no room for opportunists and dishonest and so we must continue our growth with respect being the biggest foundation of this blog. @cruis pay attention to you with your generosity wasted votes with comments that do not deserve votes for there being no effort on the part of those who wrote and may be a case as I described above. Do not vote in comments such as: Amazing picture. Good Post. Amazing Post. I love Post! Nice. I follow you! - Please, this is a disrespect to all the people who dedicate themselves and strive to leave meaningful comments here and dedicate their time to this. Be generous with who you deserve. Generosity must have limits because when we are good in our souls and hearts many people take advantage of it for being generous. Watch for wolves in sheepskin. Thank you
Sir, please forgive me for this, I will not do this from the eye. I wanted it. Anyone who comments on this post should write a little bit too I should support him so that he will come next time to think about doing something else.But now I will not vote for such people. Those who comment on this method Please forgive me for this please.
Sorry @chbartist sir

Quite motivating post. Due to the fast pace of modern life, meditation for today's human being has become very important. If we want to stay physically healthy, with stress and anxiety-free life, then we must adopt meditation. I feel only five minutes of meditation can fill positive energy in our life.
The force is with you! You got a 50.00% upvote from @steemyoda courtesy of @petervi!

I'm so glad you made a post on meditation and that you mentioned that it can improve memory and other brain functions in individuals. I've read several research article about meditation that were published in peer reviewed scientific journals and there is some very interesting research out there. The most interesting article suggested that 20 minutes of meditation per day can actually grow brain matter. MRI scans showed that grey matter density increased in the brains of individuals who practiced meditation. Among the areas affected was the hippocampus - the part of the brain associated with memory. Other areas included parts of the brain associated with perspective taking. It seems that there are many benefits to meditation. Great post. Thanks for sharing :)

One thing to keep in mind is the notion of finding yourself. Explore why you think you must find yourself and what that means. Contrary to some popular opinions, you can never really lose yourself, although at times you may experience a feeling of being lost. What can happen, however, is that you can find ways to become distracted by external events and lose touch with the contents of your conscious mind. You can view the conscious mind as a kind of mental storage room, a place where you store beliefs, ideas, and expectations. If you were using your conscious mind effectively, you would examine the contents as you placed them in your conscious mind. The really interesting thing about the contents you store in your conscious mind is that they have a major impact on the reality that you experience. If you are experiencing a need to "find" yourself, exploring the contents of your conscious mind can be quite rewarding. Meditation is a means of doing that; but keep in mind that meditation can take many forms ranging from sitting in a certain position with the mind attuned in a specific way to walking in a serene setting while lost in thought.
The goal of meditation is to enable your mind to process keen information pertinent to you rather than just processing all kinds of information that doesn't matter at all and through this process, you will find yourself.
Most likely, you'll get back in tuned with who you are that used to be aligned with how you were as a happy child but with the adult wisdom and experience.
Amazing @chbartist ...!!!
Thank you friend. Your comment is very great!
All the credits are for you my friend @chbartist because you are teaching us something especial for helping and change how our minds think, I always enjoy reading your incredible post.. Thanks a lot for your amazing job...!!!
We all heard about meditation here and there. But practicing it in our life or starting to do it is much more difficult I think.
As we don't used to give personal time to thyself. We used to keep busy on our phones when we got time.
But just start with the basic technique of meditation and see the results in few days.
Yeah we don't need to have spiritual growth to meditate. Just give yourself time. That's enough.
I personally do some basic when I got time but yes not a regular one. When I used to do, it was really refreshing and gave me more concentration at work. Now a days I unfortunately used to neglect it because of busy schedules.
Your inspirational words may help me to get started from the beginning.

Very nice friend @chbartist
Often, all of our equipment that is reaching memory is lost. But meditation is the best way to exploit the power of the subconscious mind. By which you recover long forgotten information healthy and natural.

Hi @chbartist
Here is how I do meditation. It is called Mantra Meditation. In this meditation we chant a vedic mantra on chanting beads. Repeating the same mantra over and over again. We try to be concious of clear pronounciation and hear attentively because the tendency is to be mechanical once the chant sinks into subconscious. It might seem different but it offers all the benefits you mention.
Thanks
Nice that you made a post on meditation. Really beneficial.

Meditation is very important in today's era. Meditation brings peace to the mind, so that we can do many difficult tasks easily. This is like a light in our life which takes us from darkness to light.

Thank-you for bringing to light the benefits of meditation, a practice that can bring about a much better life and a more peaceful and harmonious world.
Personally I find it of great benefit in starting my day so I can be centered, peaceful and clear, ready to greet the many children in our "Play and Exploration" program.
I even figured a way to introduce meditation to my granddaughter in a game of Jedi Academy where it is an excepted practice for becoming a Jedi.
I think the earlier you are exposed to it the easier it is to incorporate it into your life.
Wouldn't it be marvelous if it were taught in schools and became a part of their daily routine!
