The Benefits of Meditation Daily stresses and distractions can frazzle your brain. With meditation, you shut the world out and concentrate on calm.
The experience of meditation:
Picture yourself in a room in a huge castle. You find the door that allows you to walk out of the castle, and you do so. As you cross to the other side of the moat and keep walking, the massive castle dwindles in size behind you, and you can now see the forest around it, and then a distant village.
Your “castle” could be a rut or something oppressive you're trapped in, and the meditation gives you a sense of space.
