How can mindfulness meditation help you?
For thousands of years, meditators have claimed many benefits for their practice. Our experience, and that of Headspace members, suggests that regular mindfulness practice, through meditation, is an effective treatment for stress, worry, lack of focus, relationship problems, addictions and more. It leads to peace of mind and wellbeing, greater focus and creativity and better relationships.
Now scientists are finding evidence supporting many of these claims. You can read about their discoveries by clicking on the topics shown above.
STRESS
According to neuroscientists as you continue to meditate your brain physically changes, even though you’re not aware of it re-shaping itself.
Mindfulness meditation activates the ‘Rest and Digest’ part of our nervous system helping with stress management.
CREATIVITY
Research has found meditation to promote ‘Divergent Thinking’ a type of thinking that allows many new ideas to be generated.
Mindfulness also affects awareness and the filtering out of other mental processes during creative tasks.
FOCUS
Neuroscientists have also found that, after just 11 hours of meditation, practitioners had structural changes in the part of the brain involved in monitoring our focus and self control.
Researchers have found that, compared with the people who didn’t meditate, ‘those trained in meditation stayed on tasks longer and made fewer task switches’.
