                              Meditate a Little Everyday








               Meditation  is  an  integral  component  of  Zen  habits.  It  is  a  long

               established practice that helps you calm your mind, relax your body


               and  focuses  on  relaxation  and  stress  relief.  At  its  deepest  level,

               meditation serves a spiritual purpose.




               Zen meditation centers around a type of sitting meditation called

               zazen. The practice is all about sitting upright and following breath.




               Other  types  of  meditation  work  around  ideas  of  mental

               concentration on something. Still others consider that meditation


               involves imagining a thing that gives you peace or satisfaction. In

               either scenario, the goal is to slow things down, especially the mind


               and stop its incessant activity.
