Why Is Meditation Important?

If you have been around for a while, you will hear me talk a lot about meditation and its benefits. If you are still asking yourself, “Why is meditation so important?”, this post is for you! You certainly don’t need me to tell you how stress accumulates in your body. The way we eat, drink, and live takes its toll on our bodies, minds, and well-being to be sure.

Deep relaxation through meditation is an opportunity for our body to rest, heal, and be restored.

Today, I offer you a short, ten-minute, deep relaxation meditation. In it, we will relax our body and give attention to each part in turn, and send our love and care to each and every cell.

If you are someone who has difficulty sleeping, deep relaxation can compensate. Lying awake on your bed, you may like to practice total relaxation and follow your breathing in and breathing out. Sometimes, this can help you fall asleep. The practice will still be quite beneficial even if you don’t sleep because deep relaxation nourishes you and allows you to rest.

With rest comes healing. 

So settle in, lay comfortably on the floor, on your bed, or anywhere you feel most comfortable. Allow about ten minutes for this meditation.

As you continue on your spiritual journey, whether you seek healing, rejuvenation, or simply a new experience, I encourage you to check out the courses and classes that I offer. They just might change your life!
