The word meditation comes through the Latin word “meditatio”, which originally indicated any type of intellectual or physical exercise.
The word med means healing, eg. medicine.
So, meditation is an experience of relaxing the body, quieting the mind and awakeing the spirit.
Meditation encourages a deepening of consciousness or awareness and also facilitates a deeper understanding of people (self and others), events and things.
Through meditation, we can achieve and improve-
- Stress management and pain relief
- Anger management
- Simple and inexpensive (or even free) way to relax and clear the mind
- Control over anxiety
- Improve awareness and concentration
- Improve our ability to think and help us to see things clearly
- Develop our sense of self and our spirituality
