The Life-Changing Benefits of Meditation

When we meditate we meet ourself in stillness - as we realize our true nature as infinite spiritual beings.

Meditation has changed my life from the inside out. It is an invitation to go within. When we don't go within, we go without.

As a teen I remember reading this tweet from someone: I wish I could take my brain out and give it a good wash and clean.

I felt the same way. My mind always felt cluttered and heavy. I suffered from depression, anxiety and suicidal tendencies for a good portion of my life.

When I was introduced to meditation, I didn't know what to think. I did it here and there, but it never really made any sense to me. So I just assumed it wasn't for me.

In 2013 I was guided to Kundalini Yoga. This is where my meditation journey began. I began my mediation practice with the Kirtan Kriya, which I do till this day and deeply love!

Then, I decided to dive into doing silent meditation sittings. I searched for meditation teachers in the area I lived to help me create a practice. I would do weekly sittings with my teacher for 45 mins. I did this on and off for a few months. This allowed to really understand why we meditate and how to meditate. Then, I started doing silent meditation sittings on my own for 10 minutes working up to 30 minutes to even an hour on some days.

Now I meditate everyday! I don't miss a day because it is of immense value to my well-being!

When we commit, the Universe supports us in every way! When we meditate we meet ourself in stillness - as we realize our true nature as infinite spiritual beings.

I have reaped so many rewards by doing this life-changing practice. In the video below I share with you the amazing benefits of meditation and how it has changed my life:
