In a time where expressions like FOMO (fear of missing out) are prevalent, it is important to pause for a moment and be aware of yourself and mindfulness meditation will help you achieve that sense of awareness.
It is the exercise of purposefully being aware of and focused on the present moment. Being mindful enables you to be aware of what is happening; it connects you to yourself, which often gets lost in this fast-paced world. It keeps you in tune with your feelings, emotions and thoughts.
According to Review Journal, while meditating, you concentrate and get rid of the stream of disorganised ideas that can be bothering you and making you stressed. Focusing on this can lead to improved mental and physical health.
Meditation is a private process, and there is more than one way to do it. It’s not about following the pattern but rather what works for you; it can be anything, any position.
However, here are some ways that you can try to meditate in peace:
According to Buffer, the frontal lobe, which is responsible for reasoning, planning, emotions, and self-conscious awareness, tends to go offline. The parietal lobe, which is responsible for processing sensory information about the world, slows down. The thalamus helps us focus our attention on information; mediation reduces the flow of information.
