science behind meditation

For 18 years as I struggled through Bulimia Nervosa, meditation proved useful in picking up the pieces. It gave me hope and confidence that one day I would make it through and be living the life I was creating in my mind – once I overcame the underlying beliefs that kept me stuck.It took many years to challenge and change the negative mental programming and take responsibility for my own thoughts, but meditation was instrumental in giving me the time and space I needed to explore, sit, breathe and listen – to find my own authentic voice. Meditation comforted me through many dark times of feeling rejected, vulnerable, struggling with self-worth and losing my identity in the desire to please others.
