#HenryHealthTips: Meditation

Faith is powerful medicine. 

What is meditation? Meditation is the act or practice of  consciously directing your attention to positively alter your state of consciousness. There are many things you can direct your attention toward: symbols, sounds, colors, prayer, breathing, elevating your thoughts, and more. Meditation is simply about where you direct your attention and how it alters your consciousness.

Meditation develops faith and spiritual growth as well as many other benefits. It is a valuable practice to attain peaceful relaxation, an emotional, mental and physical oasis even. Stress relief is gained through meditation, something that is so crucial in this fast-paced, ever-changing world in which we all live in together.  

There is strong evidence of the correlation between the practice of meditation and health. Meditation promotes healing, emotional cleansing and as well as deepens concentration and develops insight and intuition. Meditation manifests change in your consciousness, unlocks creativity and offers inner guidance. 

People who meditate experience lower blood pressure, lower stress levels, and greater success towards their goals (probably due majorly to the increased focus and diligence). Also, those who meditate, when they are recovering from any illness or injury, heal much faster than those who don't practice meditation.

In future content, I will drop some info on the guidelines to meditation. I hope this info was helpful and offered some light onto the phenomenon that is meditation. Please, share your stories with me on how meditation has changed your life for the better or simply has gotten you through hardships or past obstacles by writing the hashtag #HenryHealthTips on IG or leave a comment below!
