Meditation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Meditation is a practice in which an individual trains the mind or induces a mode of consciousness, either to realize some benefit or for the mind to simply acknowledge its content without becoming identified with that content, or as an end in itself.

Is Meditation Really Beneficial, or Is It Just Ridiculous?
I've seen you guys post a few things about the benefits of meditation, and I only have one question: Really? I'm pretty skeptical. Is there some actual science behind meditation benefits, or is this just one of those trends?

Meditation - Psychology Today
Meditation is the practice of turning your attention to a single point of reference. It can involve focusing on the breath, on bodily sensations, or on a word or phrase known as a mantra. In other words, meditation means turning your attention away from distracting thoughts and focusing on the present moment. Meditating is deceptively simple. A cartoon from The New Yorker sums it up: Two monks are sitting side by side, meditating. The younger one is giving the older one a quizzical look, to which the older one responds, "Nothing happens next. This is it."

What Happens to the Brain When You Meditate
Ever since my dad tried to convince me to meditate when I was about 12, I've been fairly skeptical of this practice. It always seemed so vague and hard to understand that I just decided it wasn't for me. More recently, I've actually found how simple (not easy, but simple) meditation can be and what huge benefit it can have for my day to day happiness. Is Meditation Really Beneficial, or Is It Just Ridiculous?
