 The Healing power of Meditation Touches the Physical, the Psychological and the Spiritual.
When you think about meditation, we commonly think of the benefits in terms of reflection, self-examination and the life of the soul. While these benefits are part of the meditation experience, more and more the healing power of meditation can touch and improve just about every aspect of life including the spiritual, the psychological and the physical.
The healing power of meditation has such a deeper positive impact on health than just “calming down”. Meditation has been proved to empower the individual to generate a mental state that brings healing power by causing a surge of brainwave patterns called "the alpha state".
Not only does this bring a mental and spiritual tranquility, those alpha state mental patterns generate healing power throughout the body of the one involved in meditation. So the reaction that many who use meditation that they “feel better” generally is not just emotional. It reflects the power of meditation to generate healing power for the body, mind and spirit.
The healing power that meditation gives to those who use it has not gone unnoticed by the medical community. While part of the medical world shys away from talking about the healing power that meditation delivers to their patients, it is commonly known that there is a holistic value to meditation that has a healing power far more effective and less traumatic than the use of medications and hospital procedures. And it is far more affordable for the patients as well in that meditation is free. That could be an unspoken deterrent for some elements of the medical establishment to promote the healing power of meditation.
There are documented cases where the natural healing power that can be accessed through meditation has shown a potent impact on all manner of physical problems from AIDS to anxiety disorders to insomnia to cancer recovery. A short list of the ways that meditation has had a healing power impact on the lives of tens of thousands of people includes…
1. Meditation routinely evidences healing power by bringing down blood pressure, which reduces the threat of stroke, heart attacks and a myriad of other problems.
2. Meditation reduces and in some cases eliminates stress, which is a major contributor to a large variety of health problems.
3. Meditation provides it’s healing power by increasing and enhancing the individuals vigor, energy, fitness and strength.
4. Meditation dramatically improves the ability of the practitioner to relax by facilitating deep levels of contemplation and serenity. That deep sense of relaxation and calm generates healing power to the body, the mind and the soul of the individual.
5. Meditation has been shown to cure P.M.T, encourage weight loss and increase your ability to concentrate.
6. Meditation even reduces and in some cases eliminates the disruptive ability of ADHD to rob the individual of the ability to focus and concentrate for work or school.
7. Meditation increases the serotonin level in the blood. When the body generates sufficient serotonin, the impact on mood and behavior is dramatic. The healing power of meditation to increase serotonin levels empowers the mind and body to ward off headaches, depression and even help fight obesity.
The mountain of evidence of the healing power of meditation is so large and growing so fast that the image of meditation as strictly a spiritual exercise is quickly going away. More and more, people are discovering that meditation can have as much healing power as rest and good nutrition and that the healing power does not just touch one aspect of their being.
That means it is possible to see the healing power of meditation make a huge and positive impact on health as well as contributing to a greater feeling of well being and psychological peace. And since you can still get the spiritual benefits of meditation while using it for it's healing power of the body and mind, meditation is a genuine holistic aid to every aspect of our beings.
