In “MEN: What is Meditation? The No BS Guide,” we explain meditation as a practical tool for improving focus, reducing stress, and managing thoughts. We emphasise its simplicity, flexibility, and benefits like lowering cortisol and enhancing recovery.
- Meditation trains your brain: stay focused, stay calm, and manage stressful thoughts effectively.
- It lowers cortisol levels: helping reduce stress, anxiety, and improve post-workout recovery.
- Meditation offers flexibility: sit, stand, or lie down, there are no rigid rules to follow.
- Breathing pattern: breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth anchors your focus during meditation.
- Distracting thoughts: these are normal during meditation, just refocus on your breath.
