What are the correct methods and benefits of meditation?

Now that people's living standards have improved, they are always thinking about how to have a healthier body and prolong their life. In fact, there are many health care measures, such as meditation, which is quite common. So what are the correct methods and benefits of meditation? After everyone has a clear understanding of this issue, they can realize the importance of meditation, which can not only cultivate one's character, but also improve physical health.

The correct way to meditate:

first step

Method: Start with single leg cross-legged, at this time the upper leg will be raised higher. Then use both hands to press the knee of this leg. Remember to press down slowly until it is pressed against the leg below. This is the standard to be achieved in the first step of meditation.

Step 2

Method: Move the lower foot forward so that the knee of the upper leg can be pressed against the seat cushion and is flush with the heel of the lower foot. The lower foot should not move forward too far, and the standard is that the knee of the upper leg should be pressed against the seat cushion so that it just touches the heel of the lower foot.

Step 3

Method: Use a yoga brick or a few books to raise the foot that is moved forward below, and the height should basically exceed the width of the knee. When the upper leg is pressed against the seat cushion, the lower foot can actually be slightly higher than the knee or close to it. If you can press the knee of your upper leg onto the cushion when your feet are raised, then by lifting your feet inward, you will be able to cross your legs. However, since it will not last long on the plate at this point, there is no need to rush to put it on the plate. You still need to proceed step by step.

Benefits of meditation:

1. Meditation is a way to purify the mind, allowing us to face the tension, difficulties and problems in life in a peaceful and calm manner. By observing the reality of our own body and mind, we can eradicate suffering from the root. Everyone can therefore make a positive contribution to society. Meditation is an art of living.

2. Meditation, also known as sitting meditation, can promote blood circulation in the human body, eliminate troubles arising from life, and remove subjective confusion. It is the best way to prevent and treat diseases, improve health, and cultivate the body and mind. Because meditation focuses the mind on one thing, the brain enters a state of tranquility, calming the scattered mind. The state of mind becomes pure and peaceful, and the qi and meridians naturally flow unobstructed.

I believe everyone is clear about the correct method and benefits of meditation. After mastering the specific method of meditation, you can make the posture more precise, so that the health-care effects will be more obvious. In addition, it should be noted that meditation will not be effective in one or two days. You must remain patient and persevere.
