ABOUT MEDITATION
Meditation involves redirecting thoughts to train the mind to focus. This may involve focusing on the breath, or a phrase or phrases. It can lead to a calmer, clearer sense of who you are and help to cope with the strains and stresses of life.
It doesn’t matter if you normally experience lots of thoughts, or if your mind is really busy. This doesn’t mean you can’t meditate.
Warning: While for most people meditation is not harmful for some people it can be. Meditation can bring up emotions and memories that have been suppressed. This can cause panic, anxiety, fear, paranoia etc. People who have vulnerable mental health should consider this before trying it. If you work with someone or have support for your mental health you could discuss it with them. If you are unsure you can write in to info@yogapoint.co.uk and we can have a conversation about it.
