Keeping the Mind in Shape

MEDITATION is more than just a self-imposed quiet time and could make people smarter, calmer and healthier.
Research published in New Scientist found meditation could affect people's memories, attention and focus, as well as their relationships and their physical and emotional health.

The magazine noted the results of an investigation that followed 60 experienced meditators at an intensive three-month meditation retreat and watched their changes in physical and psychological health.

The volunteers became progressively more accurate and better at staying focused for long periods.

Mediation teacher Kate James, of Total Balance, has been practising meditation for more than 20 years.

"It helps you sleep better. It strengthens your memory,'' she said.

"Honestly, I could go on listing benefits all day.''
