WITH the heavy demand and hectic pace of modern life, many people feel over-worked and stressed. Our tiredness makes us frustrated, impatient, and unhappy. It can even affect our physical and mental health. We are usually so preoccupied that we feel we could no longer allocate a few hours to sit back, relax and meditate. But meditation actually gives you plenty of time by making your mind more focused and relaxed.
Meditation can be an effective way to fight stress and it has the potential to enhance quality of life and reduce healthcare costs. And a simple 10 or 15-minute breathing meditation can actually help you to deal with stress more effectively. Check out the websites below for guidance on how you can use meditation to reduce feelings of anxiety and worry.
