Why Meditation Benefits UsMeditating shifts your brain activity focus from the right frontal lobe to the calmer left frontal lobe. When you meditate, you create less energy in the right frontal lobe – you create less energy on thoughts that produce stress, depression, anxiety and fear.
When your brain activity shifts to the left frontal lobe during meditation, you are more likely to exhibit a calmer, more loving temperament in between meditative sessions. And we all know that calm people have a lower risk of stroke, heart disease, and many other common, deadly ailments.
Regular meditation results in a calmer, healthier, and more mindful you!
Here’s more good news: You do not have to consciously shift your brain wave patterns. The act of meditation does that for you automatically!
