Washington D.C. [U.S.A.], Mar. 5 (ANI): Off late, the people are increasingly adopting mindfulness and meditation as part of their daily routine to acquire peace of mind.
The benefits of mindfulness and meditation have been further highlighted by Bob Roth, CEO of David Lynch Foundation in his book named Stength in Stillness: The Power of Transcendental Meditation.
"My memory was better, my sleep was better and I was less at unease after adopting the transcendental meditation", he writes.
The book further includes notes from celebrities including Oprah Winfrey, Gwyneth Paltrow and Russell Brand about how does the meditation offers clarity and focus.
According to Lynch, the meditation provides a sense of calm which no pharmaceutical company could duplicate.
The ways of experiencing mindfulness could vary as some experience it while scrubbing each utensil, or while lying in the bed or by simply noticing how the body feels.
The meditation does need not to have a formalised way of practice.
