A saying goes, the tiger in the forest does not kill but it is the tiger of the mind that does. Did you watch how many times your mind surrenders to anxieties that consequently prove to be just an apprehension? The more you meditate, the more stress-hormones dissolve, creating a relaxation response and a clear, bold and joyful mind!
