Why practice meditation?
Because it helps to manage stress, which has become a serious health concern in modern society, due to its hectic pace, and our inability to cope with it. Stressful life makes us unhappy, tired, impatient, and leads us to face more and more complex problems, which can be mental, physical and emotional depressed.
Meditation makes us relaxed and our minds calmer and more focused. Even a simple breathing meditation can help us to overcome stress, as it helps to understand our own mind and transform our negative attitudes to positive, disturbed minds to be peaceful, and un-happiness to be happy. Overcoming negative minds and cultivating constructive thoughts are the purpose of Buddhist meditations. This is a profound spiritual practice one can enjoy throughout the day, not just while seated during meditation.
