Get your head around meditation

Have you ever caught your brain motoring along at a mile a minute, simultaneously sorting tasks on your mental to-do list, raking over your last meeting, recalling how much is in your bank account and trying to figure out what to make for dinner tonight?

We can spend so much time and energy thinking about the past and the future, it’s easy to forget about the now. Meditation and mindfulness can help bring you back to the present and reduce that frazzled feeling.

There are plenty of apps and programmes to help you learn how to meditate and become more mindful, and for more details on the brain-shaping effects of mindfulness meditation check out this blog post in Scientific American.
