Health Benefits of Meditation

Enhance Emotional Health

Another benefit of meditation is to improve self-image and allow for more positive outlooks on life. These exercises can minimize activities of cytokines, inflammatory chemicals that can lead to depression, stress, and other mood disorders. Compared to those who do not meditate, people who meditate more often tend to be more optimistic and positive in thinking. If you practice more regularly, ideally on a daily basis, these effects can last in the long term and help improve your performance at work or school. [5]
