We all live busy lives. With everything going on in our lives we tend to sometimes have negative thoughts and worries, and we feel anxious and stressed. At The Yummy Mummy Club, we believe meditation is essential to help us feel well and happy. Meditation can help eliminate negative thoughts, worries, anxiety, and stress. Meditation has a number of other benefits.
Benefits of meditation:
- Meditation improves concentration:
When we regularly meditate, we improve our mental focus by altering our brain function. Meditation changes brain patterns by confers advantages in mental focus that ultimately improve our cognitive performance. - Stress Reduction:
Meditation can help reduce severity of stress. When we practice meditation we are forced into “down time”, a time to rest both physically and mentally. Meditation also directly improves our nervous system. When we meditate, we reduce our body’s production of stress chemicals such as cortisol. - Most of us feel sleep deprived. We feel like we do not get enough sleep and as a result are constantly tired. For most us, it is our stress keeping us up at night. Our brains just don’t want to turn off. Meditation dramatically improves our stress levels, which improves the quality of our sleep
Meditation has been shown time and time again to be a useful tool in improving happiness, increasing relaxation, and reducing stress. So if you are looking for a way to relieve stress in your life, then come along to one of our TYMC meditation sessions.
