  • It’s more a state of awareness and way of thinking than something you would experience (though the relaxation and calm may feel that way).

    Ever had a long train of thought that kind of takes on a life of it’s own? You think of one thing that reminds you of another thing which reminds you of another thing and so on?

    Meditation helps build an awareness to all these thoughts, giving you more control (so to speak) of what your mind is focused on. You become aware of these runaway thoughts and are able to stop them before the chain begins. These thoughts often can influence your mood as well, so it helps with mood regulation.

    This mental awareness can be applied elsewhere as well. Being acutely aware of the positioning and movement of your body. Being acutely aware of your surroundings. This, in turn, allows you to make corrective actions if necessary, or avoid being distracted.

    That’s what I’ve gotten out of it anyway. Hope this helps.
