The Benefits of Meditation
At ZenLife Center for Healing we believe that true healing starts from the inside out. Meditation is the practice of deep contemplation or reflection on a particular “topic.” Thoughts that linger in the past cause depression, while thoughts that focus on the future cause anxiety; neither of which are helpful for our current state of being. Connecting with the present moment is the path to mastering your mind. When we take time to be alone with our thoughts, or bring focus to one thing in present time, we are entering the present moment. Studies show that people who have a regular mindfulness practice can experience much of the following:
