Spirituality has many layers and has as many perspectives as people. Spiritual practices are beneficial to our brains. Taking time out to pray, meditate, or participate in rituals helps us regulate our emotions, concentrate, and connect to others as we refresh our perspective on life (Cerqueira Rodrigues, et. al., 2023).
I enjoy meditating, practicing stillness, and listening. I enjoy just being. In years past, I would feel rushed as if I could not even stop to take a breath or pause life’s Ferris wheel. But as I began to meditate, I realized just how beneficial it is to stop and think your own thoughts.
