A Little Stress Is Good For You BUT . . .

 



A Little Stress Is Good For You BUT . . .

 

it's amazing how stress affects the way we learn.

Although a little stress in your life can improve your memory...

A lot of it will stop you from processing new information and learning new things.

You feel overwhelmed.

It gets harder and harder to concentrate.

Studying becomes a titanic struggle.

I know because that used to be a big issue for me.

Back then, my business was starting to grow really fast.

All responsibilities were on me, and I felt pressured all the time to make things right.

There was always something to do.

A problem to fix.

A situation that needed my attention.

I felt like I was being pulled into a thousand directions every day.

It got to a point where I was so overwhelmed I just wasn't able to concentrate enough to learn new skills.

I was under a lot of stress every day and there was always a new crisis.

Let go of that and focus on learning new things just wasn't easy.

I just didn't know how to put my mind in a state of peace where I could absorb everything I was studying.

I had to find a way where I could calm down all the voices inside me.

A way I could calm my mind so I could concentrate and learn new things more efficiently.

To calm all the voices inside my head and focus just on learning.

That's when I found out about mindfulness.

What's that?

We focus our attention on the present moment and accept it without any judgment.

There's no right or wrong way about feeling about something.

We focus on neither the past nor the future.

Just the present.

That way, we shift our focus from all preoccupations and just appreciate what's happening now.

With mindfulness, we learn to accept our bad emotions and past experiences instead of denying them.

It's all about now.

I knew I needed to reduce my stress levels and improve my memory, so I decided to try it out.

Whenever I was about to study, I would do a couple of minutes of mindfulness meditation first.

I just couldn't believe what happened after that...

My stress levels went down

My concentration and memory improved.

It allowed me to calm down all those inner thoughts that were distracting me.

That storm of distractions inside my head had calmed down.

With that out of my way, my brain was free to absorb and process everything I was learning much faster.

It was so effective I still use it up to this day whenever I feel overwhelmed.

 

Try it out and see

10 Wonderful Benefits Of Meditation



Meditation has existed for thousands of years, but it's never been more popular than it is right now.Meditation provides many health and personal benefits. Meditation is simple, free, and can be done anywhere. It's well worth your effort.

There are numerous reasons to include meditation in your daily life:

1. Boost your health. Regular meditation decreases inflammation, improves immune function, decreases pain, and actually adds grey matter to your brain.

2. Enhance self-control and the ability to regulate emotions. Do you currently have poor impulse control? Do you get upset easily? Meditation can help. Whether you struggle to stick with your diet or control your temper, meditation is beneficial.

3. Slow aging. Cognitive function is better preserved in those that meditate every day.


Though it hasn't been proven conclusively, it appears likely that meditation can lengthen your lifespan.

4. Improve memory and attention. If you can't remember where you left your car keys, regular meditation might be the answer. It can also increase your ability to concentrate. The ability to stay focused is considered a marker for success.

5. Learn to be more present. Let go of the past and the future. Meditation is all about keeping your mind in the present moment. You'll feel a sense of relief and great peace.


You can use this skill throughout the day to enjoy your life and accomplish more. You'll daydream and worry less. Your productivity will soar.
