Meditation isn’t about tuning out or achieving some perfect state of stillness. It’s a grounded, practical practice - rooted in ancient traditions and backed by modern neuroscience. Research shows that meditation helps shift the brain from a hyperactive beta state into calmer alpha, theta, and delta rhythms. For those living with chronic illness, where the mind often races and the body holds tension, this shift can make a real difference.
Even just 20 minutes of daily meditation can help regulate stress responses, reduce emotional reactivity, and open the door to deeper awareness. On this page, I’ve curated a selection of simple, manageable meditation techniques that are especially supportive for healing - not abstract or advanced methods, but grounded tools you can actually use.
