Never before has the world been so overwhelmed with gadgets and devices, bombarded with technology and social media to the extent that we have to make a conscious effort to recede from all this to a place of sanctity where we can contemplate our lives meaningfully and in quiet. Pondering life as well as considering the serious commitment you've chosen to make, could prove to be a daunting feat. Marriage today is not simple to say the least. Both partners are expected to balance their careers with family and still devote time to nurturing the love between them. This barely leaves time to love and know yourself - and you are, in fact, the most important element in your life. Meditation is one way to escape from the chaos. It is a simple but profound focusing of the mind that develops awareness, intuition and insight. Scientific studies have shown that meditation reduces stress and improves relationships and health. During meditation the heart rate decreases, blood pressure stabilizes, breathing slows, muscle tension is reduced, skin conductivity decreases, reflecting a decrease in anxiety and changes in brain-waves indicate an alert yet relaxed state. Meditation therapy is a skillful way to nurture your health, lower stress, strengthen character, deepen spiritual awareness and realize joy in life and relationships.
