Depression

Along with stress, depression is another deeply unpleasant, and sometimes devastating experience that makes people turn to solutions such as meditation to get to the root cause and dissolve it away rather than cover the symptoms with pills.

One of the main reasons why meditation can help with depression is because it can reduce the tendency for the depressive mind indulge in what is called “rumination,” or the endless turning over of thoughts on internal issues and conflict. As meditation is an inward-turned activity it gives people who are experiencing depression the ability, during meditation to dissolve their rumination.

 

Vedic Meditation gives the Central Nervous System a routine of gaining a deep level of rest and awareness. Following meditation the answers to problems often present themselves and thoughts that plague the mind also lose their grip and fall away.
