This “Meditation Woman” print is a celebration of various forms of meditation, but also a reminder that the positive effects of meditation are constantly undermined and threatened by aspects of our culture and politics. Meditation is defined as: to engage in calm contemplation or reflection. Meditation is also a deliberate pause to regulate breathing and calm the mind, which in its various forms, is a common practice worldwide because it has benefits for brain health and overall well-being. Meditation can be used to relax, reduce anxiety and stress, and enhance health. Many aspects of our competitive, fast-paced, and media-overloaded world are threats to the periods of reflection and tranquility we need for health and happiness… not only as individuals, but as societies and nations. There is a reason we are told over and over to “just take a deep breath” when encountered with chaos and stress. Let this print serve as a gentle reminder to at least take time to breathe deeply, contemplate, and reflect. I’d also recommend transcendental meditation, which requires no religious or group affiliation and provides tremendous stress relief. I’m not disciplined in my meditation practice, but I always find it beneficial!
