What is meditation? Meditation is a state of mind where you are thinking about something in a calm and relaxed manner. Normally, you are achieving a much higher state of focus. How will you benefit from meditating? Meditation will take you to the next level mentally, physically, and emotionally. You can expect to feel more prepared, relaxed, and focused than ever before after meditating. Remember, the body can only do what the mind thinks it can do. What Improvements can I expect from practicing meditation? Some of the improvements you can expect are: fewer or no headaches at all, improved digestion, more energy during the day, less muscle cramps or signs of muscle tightness, increased capacity to concentrate over long periods of time. Does my nutrition affect my meditative potential and is a nutrition plan included? Yes, nutrition is a major component in becoming mentally tougher. When you have the energy and mental balance needed, you can perform at your optimal mental capacity and this means eating and staying hydrated. Feeling tired, anxious, drowsy, or sleepy will not allow you to focus and perform properly. A meal calendar is included as well as recipes you can use to maximize your meditation sessions and have an organized nutrition.
