When you are unhappy what do you do? Do you go out for a meal? Go to the movies? Theater, perhaps? Do not go shopping? Maybe you like a drink to overcome your grief. Or you do not get the sensation of jogging or going to the gym?
Whatever now science proves that internal change is the only thing that can give you health and happiness. Everything else is an illusion.
What does that mean?
Your mind is the only thing that can keep you healthy and happy.
Richard Davidson has completed, a neuroscientist at the University of Wisconsin and Jon Kabat Zinn, at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center just some interesting research that can actually be useful for you and me, and the way we manage our lives.
They took a group of 41 stressed, but otherwise healthy, and individuals who are working in the biotechnology company in the state of Wisconsin. Meditation was taught 25. In this case: mindfulness meditation. The group met for 2.5 to 3 hours a class of meditation each week. Six weeks later, she participated in all meditation retreat for seven hours. In addition, each member was asked to meditate at home for an hour a day using guided meditation tape.
The other 16 in the control group and did not receive meditation training until the completion of the study.
At the end of the program for eight weeks, in November, they also provided all participants of a vaccine against influenza. And guess what. "The members of the meditation group had a significant increase in antibody titers" In other words, they are less susceptible to the flu.
The bottom line seems to be. If you want to be in good health and overcome the day-to-day blues and maintain the happiness of learning meditation. Upon reflection you change the way the brain works.
In addition, they found, and meditation the better your performance daily practices.
'' We found that practitioners long showed brain activity
We on a scale never seen before. "Mental practice is having
Have an effect on the brain and exercise in tennis or golf will be able to improve performance.'' It appears that the brain is capable of
Training and physically modified in a way that few people could have imagined.
(Richard Davidson)
So give yourself a space each day to train the brain. Works.

How Meditation Can Change Your Life in 2006
And stressed? Are you worried about your physical health? Your mental health? Your spiritual health? You wish you had less stress and anxiety in your life and more peace and harmony?
Well, I felt all these things a few years ago, and I thought I was going crazy or dying. I worked 10-12 hours per day, 6 days a week in a job very stressful. I had a wife and two kids at home who wanted, and deserved, my time and attention. I had a mortgage, two car notes, tuition, medical bills, overdue taxes, and credit card debt out of my ears!
You work hard through my days trying to take care of everything and everyone happy, but I have not had enough time to take care of me. In bed at night, and my heart beat against stress and anxiety. I'm worried about my job, my marriage, children, bills, and the house and my health and even my sanity.
My health was of particular concern. I felt tired all the time. You will gain weight. Always had my back hurts. Climb another flight of stairs and gave me breath dizziness. I felt as if I was about to break physically and mentally, and spiritually.
I was really worried about me, but I did not know what to do. I tried the gym, several fad diets, exercise machines at home, and even time management programs. I had the same results with each new thing I tried. They all seem to help at first, but I could not stay with one of them for a very long time. I realize now that it has failed because they were all short-term fixes to long-term problem. I had to change my life.
I knew I had a lot to learn, but I can not afford to buy a bunch of books and everything in the library seems to be outdated. So I usually stop at local barns and Noble on the way home from work every day. I read everything you can find on stress, anxiety, health, nutrition and self-improvement. I felt as if I had just sat there reading books without fraud buy them, but nobody seems to mind. Usually bought a cup of coffee or tea just to ease my conscience a little.
I read lots of great books with wonderful insights on improving the life of a person. Not surprisingly, one subject came up repeatedly meditation. I tried a few years ago meditation, but got frustrated and quit before really giving it a chance. But I was desperate and willing to try anything that might help.
He said a particular book, "Start Now!" I was very embarrassing to sit in the book store and meditation, but I did not lose a minute. So I went to my car, adjust the seat in a comfortable position, set my alarm watch for 30 minutes, then I closed my eyes and started counting my breath.
Proved to be a crucial moment in my life. Of course, I have not had an immediate success. Mediation takes practice, and it can sometimes be very difficult. But to change the decision to incorporate meditation into my life my everything.
After stopping at a bookstore every night for a while and split my time between reading and meditation. Can change anything else in my life. Was still a stressful job, my marriage, my children, my house, but the bills somehow, you feel less stressed better, more active!
No, it was not a magic solution to all the woes of my life. But once you start to feel more relaxed and less stressed, and you are better able to focus on other things I needed to do to become physically and mentally, and spiritually healthy.
I soon began to practice meditation daily at home. A also launched a reasonable exercise program that included walking, light training, and yoga. Changed these things combined with a good diet (more than once), literally my life. Now I'm happier and healthier, and live in peace with the world around me.
I hope this story will inspire some of you to take that first step and begin to integrate the reflection of your own life. This is the perfect time to make a decision. What is the best New Year's resolution to change your life for the better? There are many ways and practices of meditation and there are countless resources available to you in bookstores and on the Internet. I'm sure you can find something that works for you.

Cultivation of a positive spirit, through meditation
You can create your state of mind. Whether it is positive or negative attitude is up to you. The ability to change your environment, circle of friends, and attitude, is within your control.
As computer absorbs raw data, so I do not mind. In your mind a culture, within itself, has grown. Many people feel they do not have control over their own mind, because this culture has become negative. Is a result of the negative experiences of the past, and being in a negative environment, or be under the influence of non-constructive ideas.
Similar to a computer virus, you must identify it quickly spread to avoid leaving your mind. You can also transfer the virus from negative thinking to the people around you. According to spread all over you negative energy, such as "weeds in a field."
Just as a farmer, you can grow as well. Energy in your mind is the culture, and it is up to you, whether against weeds or wheat. If you have a farm and allow the same care field, you'll have the opportunity to have any kind of crops there.
It is the same with energy in mind.
You have the option of choosing quality seeds: Information, in the form of books, books, DVDs and CDs, lectures, courses, workshops and seminars. This is learning for self-improvement, and it leads to a positive state of mind.
However, is not finished your work, it still must reinforce lessons, and keep everything in order centered. This can be compared to fertilization, irrigation, and "weeding the mind." You have to work permanently or herbs to grow. That, my friend, is meditation, and one of the reasons why we meditate in the first place.
Believes meditation is controlled focus on an object, or a task without the existence of the rule.
This process allows you to watch all cases objectively. You can find solutions, turn negative situations into positive learning experiences, and create your mindset positive. As a result, you will make new friends, and goals, and problems to deal easily accessible, and the development of indomitable spirit.
Remember the last time you made an accomplishment. This feeling, and the ability of each and every one of us. There is a formula for success, but action must be taken. Work is something that most people never will.
Learn how to separate yourself from the "package" through meditation, education and employment.
