Power of Meditation


How To Trigger The Powerful And Mightiest Weapon That Every Individual Has; Meditation  



Have you ever sat in a quiet place close to nature, eyes closed, feeling the fresh air that kisses your face softly and all you can sense that you are breathing in heaven? The most serene feeling in the world is when you meditate. All you can experience is the rhythm of your breath and you are all lost in a calm state of mind; free from all stress and worries.


Go out today, find a lonely place nearby, it can be a park, balcony or any place where you find yourself the most and meditate. Close your eyes, take deep breathes, feel the air and concentrate on the functions of your body like your heartbeat, inhale and exhale, feel your skin touching the air internally. And then slowly open your eyes, you will feel refreshed like it’s a new beginning


Meditation is one of the very powerful exercises that enables one to find a better connection with their body that we in our day to day busy life often pass us by. But if we look further meditation creates a strong awareness of how our emotions influence our behavior.

But over time there’s one question that creeps in that What if the mind wanders? Well, wandering is inevitable, during meditation your mind will wander more. You may possibly notice other sensations within your body, thinking about your past or future, judging people and other stuff. There is nothing wrong with that.  It is natural conditioning of the mind to wander.



When you notice that this happens, simply notice what is that you were thinking about or what was distracting you from meditating. Then take a moment and pause and relax.

You don’t need to immediately have to get your attention right back to the breath. In its place, set yourself free in whatever you were thinking about, revive your attention, then softly, mildly and gradually return your awareness to the breath. Then start experiencing your inhalation and exhalation.

Then again after a few breaths, unvaryingly, you will again wander with your thoughts. Don’t get mad at yourself. It’s natural as mentioned previously.  At this moment what is important is how we retaliate when it happens. In that very moment accept whatever is going within you, without attributing and creating too many judgments to it. Then lastly, getting yourself back again take a moment to come back in the present and recommence your meditation.

 “Where we build our skill is in the practice of coming back. Coming back again and again. Notice it — thinking — and then pause, and then come back to the present moment.”
