Meditation Meditation is a mental discipline used to get beyond the ‘thinking’ mind (left hemisphere brain function) into a deeper state of relaxation or awareness (right hemisphere brain function)
Why Meditate? There are many benefits of giving the ‘brain chatter’ a rest and stimulating the relaxed, creative side producing more balanced results. These skills add value to all aspects of life.
“What we know unconsciously can arise into our waking awareness and creativity flows when the right hemisphere of the brain is engaged” Tony Crisp, author, founder of The Arcane Library
Researching into the process of mental genius, Joseph C. Pearce reports “The final breakthrough in every recorded case occurs at a moment when the logical processes have been suspended, a moment of relaxation….”

to eliminate the brain chatter stimulates right brain activity.

Brain Functions Brain scientist, Jill Bolte Taylor, author of My Stroke of Insight explains that the two cerebral hemispheres of the human brain are quite
separate, communicate with one another but process entirely
differently…. The Left Hemisphere The Right Hemisphere Is the ‘little voice’, brain chatter. Is here, now, observing energy Thinking linearly & methodically Feeling /sense of peacefulness Thinks in language Thinks in pictures Speech Body language Individual /’I am’ At one with all that is Processes information Creative /intuitive
“A deep state of relaxation is essential to effective brain
functioning. Tai Chi, yoga, spontaneous dancing, a brisk walk or a
regular game of squash or tennis can take your mind into the zone of
maximum potential.” Majul Bajaj in ‘Personal Growth – Cross train your brain’
