Meditation - what is it and why we talk too much these days about meditation.
In simple words meditation is to focus on any single object (real or virtual) - this increases your focus and reduces your stress.
If we analyze through our day to day activities, we will find our mind to be occupied with some or the other thoughts, positive or negative at all the time and at times there are many thoughts jumbled together.
Our Mind becomes like a messed up room where all the things are lying haphazardly including good thoughts and bad thoughts and we get stressed and tired as soon as you enter this room.
When we say "I am tired", not willing to take new opportunities or not willing to work or stressed out - it simply indicates that there is no empty space in our mind and we do not know how to clean or empty this space.
There comes the Meditation - an art to empty your mind from all the thoughts which are lying there unused however occupying the space in a very random and weird way. Even for 2 minutes if you are able to close your eyes and do nothing - no thoughts, no ideas, just be blank - you are done with the cleaning of the space and can start using your mind afresh.
This is the only reason why we are fresh in the morning - as we haven't moved these thoughts within our mind for 8 hours, however, we start feeling tired sooner as those thoughts are still there and become active in addition with new thoughts.
It is like de-fragmentation in Computer System to reallocating the fragments in a more managed way and occupying less space.
Keep Meditating and keep yourself fit and healthy from mind and heart!
