Meditating lets you enter a state of peace and quiet reflection, calming your body and mind. There are many ways to meditate. You can do it while praying, doing yoga or tai chi, listening to music, or sitting cross-legged on the floor with incense and candles. Meditating removes you mentally from where you are while your mind and body rest. Research shows that people have immense success with meditation to relieve stress, according to Roger Jahnke, doctor of acupuncture and oriental medicine, and author of "The Healer Within." Jahnke says you can meditate two ways: by focusing your mind or by emptying your mind; the latter is harder and takes longer.
