Weight Loss Through Meditation
1.
2. Meditation -- the practice of focusing your
attention in order to find calm and clarity.
Your efforts around exercising and eating well
can lower high blood pressure and put the
weight in control.
It can also help you manage stress, which
drives some people to eat.
Meditation directly helps you lose weight,
meditation does help you become more aware
of your thoughts and actions.
Meditation
3. Most types of meditation have these four things in
common:
A quiet location. You can choose where to
meditate -- your favorite chair? On a walk? It's
up to you.
A specific comfortable posture, such as
sitting, lying down, standing, or walking.
A focus of attention. You can focus on a word
or phrase, your breath, or something else.
An open attitude. Keep bringing your attention
back to your breath, phrase, or whatever else it
is you're focusing on.
4. Mindfulness meditation can be done sitting or
while doing your daily activities.
The key to mindfulness meditation is to pay
attention. That means no multitasking. For
example, to practice mindfulness meditation
while eating, pay attention to your food rather
than reading, talking or watching TV during a
meal.
This method encourages you to taste and
enjoy food but to closely watch how much
you’re eating and why. Keep your awareness in
your body rather than zoning out and then
noticing you’re stuffed, again.
5. People sometimes lose weight without even
trying when they start to meditate. This has to
do with expanding your awareness of what’s
going on in your body.
People eat for two reasons: physical and
emotional hunger. Meditating can help to calm
you enough that you’re less likely to get
stressed out and use food as a coping
mechanism.
6. Awareness of your stomach is a big part of
mindful meditation strategy for losing weight.
On a scale of one to ten, with one being
starved and ten being post-Thanksgiving
dinner, it recommends waiting till your hunger
level is close to one. Food tastes better when
you’re hungry.
An empty stomach is the size of a closed fist.
Open your hands and imagine your two palms
full of food. You should only fill your stomach
two-thirds full for optimal digestion. This is
about a level five on the one to ten scale.
7. The high stress level of the modern world
keeps people in fight or flight mode.
When you’re stressed, steroids release and
increase your belly fat, because the body
interprets chronic stress as famine.
Meditation counteracts this response. Rather
than stressing you out, meditation soothes your
nerves and averts that extra belly fat.
