Do you find meditation helpful?!
Question: Do you find meditation helpful.?
I've tried to do it a few times and while it feels great and relaxing at the time, I find that my stress levels actually go up within a few days. I don't know if this is my mind's way of trying to rebel against being silenced.? Health Question & Answer
Answers:
Very much so. It can be very beneficial to stay with it; the longer you meditate, the more at peace you will become. But the point is not to 'silence' your thoughts; just not allow them to take over, distract your real purpose. Having a pen and paper handy can help when you start out, as you can write down any thoughts that come to mind - rather than resist them, fight or try to send them away. Then you can get back to meditating. Health Question & Answer
It is very helpful. If you can make a regular/daily habit, you'll be great.
It can also aid you hugely if you have someone who "knows this stuff" to walk you through a meditation exercise or two.
If you stop doing this for a few days, yes, the stress will come back.Health Question & Answer

That's the whole idea about meditation: it will help you identify what makes your life stressful and eliminate it from your life. It will take more than "a few times" for you to feel its benefits. Your mind is "rebelling" against change. Remember, change is good for the soul. Good luck.Health Question & Answer
