Why Meditate
In the modern world, we are processing the equivalent information in 1 day that our ancestors 250 years ago did in a whole year.
It is no wonder a lot of us are experiencing overwhelm and stress. Meditation is shown to help slow down the mind and therefore the body.
The reason most find meditation a challenge is due to techniques where we are trying to calm the mind against the incessant chatter
The 3 main forms of meditation and why Vedic Meditation is so easy
There are many types of meditation which fall into primarily 3 main categories.


The similarity
Both concentrative & contemplative forms of meditation are using the surface level of our minds such as site, breath, feelings, emotions.
Vedic Meditation takes us beneath the surface of the mind and into the deeper layers of calm and quiet

The Difference
The Difference
With VM we are neither concentrating nor contemplating. We use a Mantra (translation is Mannas - Mind, Tra - Vehicle so it is a vehicle of the mind).
The mantras we use in Vedic Meditation are known as Bija Mantras (seed mantras) which have no meaning. As if the mantras meant something we would be using the right side of the brain by contemplating.
We are not concentrating on the mantra either as then we would be concentrating.
Our meditation teacher Tweed Heads will make you learn a particular technique that is scientifically shown to activate both hemispheres of the brain.
Vedic Meditation is also shown to reduce our metabolic rate (your functioning energy rate) by 24% during meditation compared to just dropping by 8% during sleep. So we are getting 2-5 times greater rest than sleep.
Thanks to this deep, calm, state of rest we remove the stresses and pressures of life. In turn, we get access to a host of other benefits.
