MEDITATION AND THE MIND
Initially, when people begin to meditate, they might not feel much. If this happens to you after a few times of trying to meditate, don’t get discouraged. Like everything else, meditation takes practice. And remember, practice makes perfect! Everybody who has meditated consistently for a while will tell you that healthcare mediation is very relaxing and peaceful. If you practice meditation long enough
and regularly enough, that peacefulness will be carried with you throughout the day.
Not only will you feel more at peace with yourself and your life in general, you’ll find that the people around you will begin to experience your peacefulness. Ask anyone who has meditated between three and five years, and they’ll tell you that they are a much softer and gentler human being. This is something I’ve experienced in my own life. The proof is in the pudding. The effects of meditation are contagious!
On a deeper level, meditation instills a sense that all is well. Because of this, you learn to simply live life, instead of constantly trying to analyze life. It pulls on your “true self,” (who you really are), instead of your “false self” (what you have achieved, your accomplishments, goals, and so forth). To figure out who you really
are, ask yourself, who am I if I take all of these external things away? Try taking away all of your accomplishments and ask yourself, “Who am I?”
By mentally removing all of these external things that are around you, you can get to the real crux of the question of whom or what you really are. And you can do by cleaning you mind through meditation. That’s because meditation allows you to have a true awareness of “what is.” From the day you were born until now,
awareness is the only the thing that has been consistently present in you.
Everything else in your life healthcare has, and will continue to change over time, like the jobs you’ll have and even many of your ideas. When you learn to quiet your mind and to be with yourself in silence, you will understand what and who you are.
