How Meditation Benefits Me

by Helga
(Cape Town, South Africa)

Sometimes I really don't feel like meditating. My head is foggy, I am tired and I just feel generally out of sorts. Meditation is the last thing I feel like at such times.

But experience has taught me that if I surrender to the process and just sit down and start meditating, afterwards I feel very different, with a feeling of serenity and a much clearer head. I feel physically and emotionally 'together'.

I have realized, too, that when I really, really cannot get my act together to meditate - due to tiredness, for example - I no longer allow myself to feel guilty if I miss a session. I am now quite happy to just lie down and have a nap instead.

Thank you for the opportunity to share my experience.
