Meditation

Meditation is a practice which is part of many world religions. It is designed to induce a state of profound relaxation, inner harmony and increased self-awareness.The actual method of practising mediation might vary between schools of thought: from mantras and watching your breath, to candle gazing - but the purpose remains the same: to focus one's awareness on an object or thought, so that extraneous thoughts are excluded. The mind then becomes calm, relaxed and aware.

Meditation has been shown to reverse the body "flight or fight" response to stress, and initiate the Relaxation Response. Whilst it is practised as a means to spiritual enlightenment in the East, in the West it is mainly used as a stress management tool.

Those practising Meditation on a regular basis report feeling more relaxed, alert, calm, happy and focussed than before.

Treatment is especially useful in treating the following health conditions:
anxiety, addictions, chronic fatigue syndrome, depression, headaches, high blood pressure, insomnia, IBS, migraines, stress.

You are recommended to seek advice of a qualified health practitioner. To find a qualified practitioner in your area look in the Practitioner Directory.
