Life is a long journey and meditation is the key to live happily during all the ups and downs. In our lives, there are things that we love to do and the things we don’t. But we should always get time to perform some meditation exercises every day. Today’s world is so much busy in making money to make a life. Somewhere in this busyness, we have lost the importance of taking care of ourselves.
What is meditation?
“When an individual sits alone in silence and focuses his/her mind on one specific thought, activity or object to get into the calm state of mind” is called meditation. It is an easy and impactful exercise which can also be done by closing the eyes in a soulfully quite environment.

Meditation teaches us that we are not just a structure of bones and muscles making a random human body, there is a living soul inside all of us. When you close your eyes and focus on anything, at that very time you talk to your inner self which leads you to know deeper things about yourself, which you had never been aware of.
3. It treats pain better than prescribed drugs – Yes, when you get in a situation where you have nothing to do but to focus on yourself and your life sitting in a relaxed position, your mind works and the activity in your mind keeps you focused toward the topic of your ideas and thoughts.
