Meditation was for many years perceived by Western cultures as "mystic mumbo jumbo" from the Orient. In fact, it's only in the last 10 to 20 years that meditation has become a common practice in the U.S., Canada, Australia, and even parts of Europe. However, it has been practiced by the Chinese, Indians, Japanese, and other Asian cultures for thousands of years. The benefits of meditation are undeniable: It improves your immune system, decreases cellular inflammation, and decreases pain. It reduces your risk of anxiety, depression, stress, and improves positive emotions. It makes you feel less lonely, increases your compassion, and promotes social connectivity and engagement. It improves self-control, willpower, and discipline. It enhances your emotion control and your ability to introspect.
