The Western world is slowly embracing meditation as modern science catches up with this ancient practice.

Mindfulness meditation can help you in finding your way to better health by training the mind to focus on the moment to moment experience, without being swept away by judgments. The brain changes physically in response to experience. This is called neuroplasticity and is possible through the whole lifespan, not just in childhood as previously thought. By meditating regularly, you can actually change your brain! That’s pretty exciting!
