Meditation and Your Sleep

Posted Aug 24 2008 1:25pm 2 Comments

Meditation uses breath control and self-distraction to quiet the mind and relax the body. Regular meditating will lower your blood pressure, reduce your breathing rate, and even can even alter your brain waves.

Meditation is done while sitting upright, cross legged, or kneeling, or in a straight back chair, and then focusing on the rhythm of your breathing. At this time you can also repeat in your mind a short thought, phrase, chant or prayer.

Meditation is often practiced for about 20 minutes in the morning and again late in the afternoon.

You can take a course, find a book at your local library or bookstore, or you can go to the Himalayas’ (second mountain passed the crooked stream; tell’em Bob send ya for 10% off).
