When we meditate, our consciousness changes. Our consciousness gets deeper inside and more peaceful and full. We feel more present, more “Here Now.” The more we practice meditation, the more our consciousness will stay in that deeper silence inside and we will feel more centered and less upset by the events around us.
It is natural after we have been meditating for a longer time to feel this Presence of Inner Silence all the time. Meditation gets us centered and removes our daily stress. The more we meditate, the more flexible we become. We don’t hold onto the stress as much as we did before and any new stressful situation bounces off of us like water on a duck’s back. Where we were previously upset by the stress, now the stress is less likely to stick to us. Even when the stress sticks to us, we sit down to meditate and the meditation washes it away so we can feel fresh again.
