Hvað er Innhverf íhugun?
Innhverf íhugun er tærasta, einfaldasta og áhrifaríkasta íhugunaraðferð sem völ er á. Við iðkun hennar fer athygli hugans sjálfkrafa og áreynslulaust inn á við. Í kjölfarið kyrrist hugurinn, fer út fyrir svið hugsana og kemst í sitt hljóðasta og máttugasta ástand, þ.e.a.s. ástand tærrar vitundar eða innra sjálfs.
How does transcendental meditation work?
Transcendental Meditation allows the mind to simply, naturally and effortlessly transcend thinking and to experience a state of restfully alert consciousness. This deeply restful experience of transcending rejuvenates mind and body, leading to a wide range of benefits in daily life.
The unique technique
Transcendental Meditation is unique. It is fundamentally different from other systems of meditation and relaxation. A recent study on brain activity during meditation, published in the journal "Consciousness and Cognition" identifies three fundamental categories of meditation: focused attention, open monitoring or mindfulness, and automatic self-transcending - a new category introduced by the authors to describe Transcendental Meditation.
