Meditation, it’s better than sitting around doing nothing. It’s also good for you physically, including boosting your immune system.

When we are stressed and anxious, hormones cortisol and adrenaline are pumped too quickly through our bodies. If this happens too often, our adrenal glands become exhausted and this damages our immune system.

Stress and anxiety isn’t just something that happens in your mind, it affects our bodies too. I see so many clients with physical problems and looking back over their lives, stress and anxiety have been a huge theme. Of course, we can’t always avoid stressful and difficult situations, but we can manage them.

If your thoughts brought on a physical symptom in the first place, changing how you think, can do the opposite.
Masking problems is a temporary fix, balance your body with healing and nourishing foods, and manage your thoughts rather than your thoughts managing you. See how your body and your mind improve, and discover how much better you feel.

There are so many ways to start practicing meditation, just closing your eyes and breathing slowly is a wonderful start. For those who need help, I have guided meditations available on my website, and I offer one to one classes or groups on line during this pandemic. You deserve a happy and healthy life. Today you could start to make that happen. #meditate
