Knowing that a regular mindfullness practice can improve your immune system, increase prefrontal grey matter, and predict more stable mood makes me meditate even if I dont want to. Just as I take medicine and exercise when I dont want to because I know it&#39;s good for me. <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Chloe U.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I like to meditate in the school mornings before I go to school it helps me relax and get rid of stress so I\u2019m Relaxed and ready for the day to Start.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Daniela Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">All the chatter in my monkey mind makes me see my need to meditate. Meditation calms me and helps me to focus so I\u2019m more present in the world to this I love.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Cherly Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">This is a very interesting question. Only when you asked, I asked myself the same. What is my motivation to meditate? It is the mental peace and calm feeling that I get. Be it a bad day or an excellent day I meditated because it keeps me grounded.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Cl A Y.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I&#39;ve meditated for over a decade, so I&#39;m biased. But, it calms me beyond what I&#39;m able to achieve on my own. I was a kid with anger issues, now I can walk away from anything. That&#39;s what motivates me to continue. And best of all, cost me nothing but time.

If we don&#39;t just lay down, stop and let our thoughts settle, like the dirty water, we are not going to be able to live fully  because we are clouded with all that dirt. That&#39;s what motivates me to meditate, to discover myself everyday with silence. <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Sander C.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">John Lennon had a saying: &quot;life is what happens while you were busy making plans&quot;. I don&#39;t want to waste my life planning, worrying and thinking so much that I miss the beauty of life itself. Meditation gets me closer to this intention.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Elisabeth O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">To improve my ability to Focus on the task at hand.
