Meditation has been practiced for its medicinal properties since the early years of the human race. Its healing properties remained unexplained for a long time, arousing great curiosity about its wonderful effects on the human body and mind. Meditation is rooted in Buddhist tradition and has two broad categories of practice: concentrated meditation and focused meditation. However, all forms of meditation are practiced in the same way, despite having distinctive names. The benefits of meditation are experienced subjectively but are also supported by scientific evidence. A person can practice meditation sitting, lying down, or even in a yoga pose. Continued practice of meditation training strengthens the immune system, promotes positive thinking and improves concentration. The meditation practices studied in this article are mindfulness, loving-kindness, and prayer. Mindfulness Meditation Being aware of one's surroundings while accepting one's current life circumstances is the essence of mindfulness-based meditation training. The benefits that an individual may possess after regular practice can be measured and examined at the molecular level of the human body. Additionally, the individual's behaviors and attitudes mature with great enthusiasm in everyday life. When practicing mindfulness meditation, the individual seeks to silence the mind and become aware of all the senses of the body. External factors should not prevent the individual from leaving the pose, but rather use the distraction as a means to create a stronger will to overcome any disturbance. Brain Functioning The most common physiological identification in measuring the effectiveness of meditation can be seen in the brain region.
