It's a beautiful thing if you can figure out how to focus and relax. Meditating is like a mini-vacation for the soul. Hope this helps!

The whole aim of meditation is,
1. to calm your mind, and
2. to focus the mind on one thing.
The mind of a normal person is like an uncontrolled monkey jumping from one thought to another. To process all these thoughts a lot of body energy is used. Thus if your mind cease to process thoughts you will be saving a lot of body energy which can be used to cure a lot of ailments in your body. That is why a person who continues to meditate regularly even gets a nice body complexion.
Anapana or concentration on the breath is the best form of meditation.
Meditation also helps.
- to improve concentration
- to relieve stress,
- to control high blood pressure
- and also to get over many other ailments.

Can't hurt! After 30 plus years or meditation, I can clear my stress with one breath. Works for me!
(Yes, one still gets stressed....if one allows it.)
