Often humans tend to work and work until they become ill, exhausted and feeling low they have to take to their bed for a week or two.

If you ask anyone, they will tell you a clear and focused mind helps to improve conditions at work and in the home, flogging yourself to death, if you pardon the pun, is no use to anyone long term.

When a healing medium like myself teaches the art of mediation to small groups of people, the feedback is they are more focused and they are less stressed by the little things in life that would usually drive them to boiling point.

When you are too busy to recognise that your mind and body is imbalanced, a few sessions of meditation can be the essential tool required to bring forward a sense of calm.

Better health all round is the number one benefit and the results include lower levels of anxiety and an increase of energy to tackle daily life more easily.

The bonus with attending meditation classes with a healing medium is that they will lead you through a short personal meditation that you can then do at home. When meditating once or twice a week most of my students tend to start enjoying the calmness and will take it upon themselves to meditate daily.

The inner self when it feels good will radiate from you. Like the daily news, it travels fast, and others around you will ask how it they are worn out is and you are not.

Meditation is not just about any beliefs of certain religions it is about caring for the human mind and body and keeping it healthy in today’s strenuous lifestyle.
