How Meditation Helps In Detoxification


Nowadays human body is affected greatly by toxins. We are surrounded by different kinds of toxins- in the air, in food, in water, in everything. The process hatthat removes toxic substances from the body is known as detoxification which is naturally done by liver, kidney, intestine and skin. By taking healthy diet and exercise, we can enhance the process of detoxification of internal organs. Stress is a deterrent to good health as when you are in stress your body secretes such hormones, which slows down the process of detoxification of internal organs. 

    Stress is developed when one’s mind is unbalanced. The natural virtue of the mind is, to remain in a calm state, but it continues its work i.e. thinking. In a day, approximately 60,000 thoughts come in a human mind. These thoughts may be positive or negative depends on your attitude. Negative thoughts create stress in one’s mind by destroying one’s calm state of mind. If negative thoughts are great in number, level of stress is high. In any circumstance both types of thoughts arise in your mind, if you proceed with negative thoughts, the result will also be negative. Suppose one of your friends suffers with some problem and you don’t know about this. One day friend behaves badly with you. Thoughts arise in your mind. If you are carried out by negative thoughts, you behave accordingly; your friendship may be in danger. This will lead to stress in your life. If you have positive thoughts and ignore negative thoughts, you are able to go deep into the matter and your bond with your friend becomes stronger which leads to happiness in your life. So you see the power of thoughts. Thoughts lead our life.  To detoxify our body, it is necessary to detoxify our mind from negative thoughts. We can’t stop thoughts forcefully, this process arises more stress, just like river water in the dam. But we can regulate our mind; we can convert negative thoughts into positive thoughts. Suppose a thought comes to your mind- how corrupt people are (negative). This thought can be ended like, but people are changing and gradually they develop correct thinking, right understanding (positive). This type of attitude can be developed by increasing your awareness toward your inner self.  Awareness toward the inner self can be developed by connecting yourself with the power of life which is present in your heart. Now the question arises, how this is possible. This is possible by meditating on your heart. Success is achieved when the procedure is right. To learn to meditate you can visit www.heartfulness.org.
“Everything comes first into the mind and then into the active world. So we must train our self not to have thoughts about sickness, about illness, about meanness. That is why it is important that you think well of all. If you think so- and-so is bad and nasty, that person will be bad and nasty, at least to you. So everything in the world happens from our thought. Thoughts lead to action. Therefore moral laws says, purify your thoughts.”
