Meditation is a mental exercise that involves relaxation, focus, and awareness. When we meditate, we are dedicating a certain amount of time and effort to being as mindful as we can.
Meditation is different things to different people. However, it is usually one of these three things that drive people to practice:
• Specific benefit: improving your health, wellness, performance, focus, memory, creativity, self-control, etc.
• Growth: personal growth, emotional healing, self-knowledge
• Spirituality: connecting with God, transcending the ego, finding peace, and other spiritual goals.
Whatever drives you to meditate, that is good. You will get the benefits you seek, in the proportion of your consistency and commitment to building this habit.
