Guided Meditation For Life Balance And Greater Health

By Gary Russell


The art of meditation has been around for thousands of years. It has only recently become popular in modern society as a way to relax and reduce the stress of everyday life. Learn the benefits of practicing guided meditation for life balance and improve your outlook on life and your general well being.

Guided imagery is quickly gaining in popularity simply for the fact that you are not left on your own to figure out what to do. You are led by an instructor or teacher who walks you through the journey step by step taking you on a relaxing journey of mind, body, and spirit. Often these types of meditations have a theme or a purpose. If life balance is your purpose then this will help you.

The benefits to be gained are nearly instant as you feel the stress and anxiety leave your body and mind. A gentle voice guides you with calming imagery and words as you allow this to take over leaving you with a sense of calm and control. Life can be stressful and hectic and meditating can relieve these conditions of life.

The positive focus these instructors lead you on will help to reduce your stress levels and even improve your overall health. You may find that you have a lower blood pressure, that your immune system gets a boost, that you are thinking more clearly, and even feel calmer and more in control. These are only some of the many benefits of meditating.

We let go of those things that are causing us distress and fully immerse ourselves in the present moment during our meditation. Our bodies are relaxed and calm and our minds are not racing with random thoughts. When we find ourselves thinking about something stressful we just gently bring our focus back to the present moment. We listen to the calming voice of our instructor as they lead us toward ever-increasing relaxation and joy.

The benefits of meditating are many not only for the mind but the body and spirit as well. You can gain a sense of well-being that permeates every other area of your life. Often the physical benefits can be realized in lower blood pressures, less stress and anxiety, improved cognitive functioning, and improved immune system functioning. There are many other benefits besides these.

Life can be busy and fast paced and we need a moment to slow down and allow ourselves to catch up. Meditating gives us the opportunity to slow down our thought processes and take in the present moment like we have never experienced it before. Our senses increase and we become aware of so many things going on around us but we are more calm and relaxed because of it and can handle the hectic pace that life brings.

If you find that you are going through life with more stress and anxiety and that you are out of balance and you don't know which way to turn. Turn to guided meditation for your answers. It just may be the one thing that gets you back on track and in control of yourself.
