Meditation is often promoted to be a cure all treatment for all sorts of issues; anxiety, depression, sleep problems, chronic pain etc etc. But there is a 'deeper' aspect to meditating which is often glossed over by the modern attitude for a quick fix. Sometimes meditating doesn't change a lot, but instead brings us deeper in touch with ourselves

There is increasing evidence about how meditation – in all it’s various forms – can be good for our physical and mental health. It’s reported to reduce anxiety and stress, help lift depression, balance moods, improve eating habits, help cope with grief, assist with managing chronic pain and can even improve immune function
