meditation is like, really important guys

brain scans of meditators show a thickening of neurons in areas related to attention, decision making and memory. and if you ask me, meditating keeps me in tune with myself so i'm not just idly cruising through life on auto-pilot and continuing to regret what i end up getting myself into. it really just tempers your will to be. there's an expanded clarity of self-assured confidence. the fact that it affects your brain this way is truly phenomenal. . . it's like brain centers are evolving right before our eyes! and that's exactly how meditating, by helping me to develop what sage aptly likes to call "mindfulness," makes me feel: like i'm moving ahead to the next stage!

the simplest method is to sit or lie comfortably, close your eyes and simply breathe; evenly, deeply. there's just you and your breath. see where it takes you
