8 Ways Meditation Benefits You – Vol. 464, Aug. 23, 2018
Today there are many people who are meditating at least once a day, most do so twice a day and there is a good reason for them to do so. However, I do know that meditation isn’t for everyone, because I have found it impossible to get into the habit. Thankfully, I do self-hypnotism and that puts one at the same brain wave level as meditation. So, for those of you, who like me are unable to do meditation, learn how to do self-hypnosis instead.
Here are the reasons that you want to be putting your brain waves out of beta and into alpha or theta are:
- You are able to lower the stress levels you feel, and therefore anxiety goes down. How does this happen? Because the cell volume in your brain’s amygdala is lowered, the part of your brain that is responsible for emotional content.
- Meditation stops people from being so self-involved, by focusing your surroundings helping you to live in the present.
- Keep your brain young, by meditating. A UCLA study found that people who had meditated for 20 years or more, had more gray matter in their brains. Gray matter is the part of the brain that allows you to control your muscles, allows for your sensory perception through your five senses, keeps your memory strong, deal with emotions, speech, decision making, and self-control. Basically most of the abilities that allow you to be human.
- Meditation helps with self-control making it easier to break bad habits.
5. Meditation improves focus, by stopping the mind from wandering.
6. Meditation can make you happy by having he brain signal increases in the left side of
the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for positive emotions.
7. Meditation helps with self-acceptance by allowing one to explore one’s inner self.
8. Meditation benefits cardiovascular and immune health by inducing relaxation. It works by
Increasing the amount of nitric oxide in the system, opening up blood vessels, leading to a
drop in blood pressure.
if you are a persistent person, who is willing to put the time in to learn how to meditate, you could greatly influence your health and attitude for the better.
