Why do I meditate? What kind of problems do you have?

Oriental meditation is not based on any particular religion

and anyone can learn and apply to one's daily life.

To put simply, I am much happier person. I am beginning to see that I don’t need anything to be happy. For years I’ve trained myself into thinking that I need, need, need, in order to be satisfied with life.

That I “need” to become rich. That I “need” to accomplish a certain goal. That I “need” to meet a certain person. I don’t need life to change in order for me to be happy anymore. Being alive. Being on a journey. Being able to think everyday. These are the things that bring real joy and happiness.

I am in much more control of my emotions now days. Sure, I still have a long way to go but with oriental meditation, it’s absolutely phenomenal how far I’ve come with being able to control my emotional state.

Anger no longer affects me like it used to. Sadness no longer has that sting. And anxiety is easily diminished through a few deep breaths. Meditation teaches me not to discard and block out these emotions, but to embrace them, study them, and gain a true understanding of them. When I see my emotions for what they really are, I am able to prevent them from dictating how I should think and act. I am able to say: “hey anger, how are you today? I realize that you are there and I won’t ignore you. Let’s just come to an understanding and move on peacefully.”
