Relaxation of Mind

Upvote:2

The mind generally oscillates between attachment, aversion and ignorance due to experience of pleasant, unpleasant and neutral sensations. This causes metal fatigue.

In meditation, one stops this oscillation of states by not reacting to stimuli with unwholesome states of mind. This is relaxing.

Breath meditation results in:

concentration which suppresses certain unwholesome states
insight which eradicates unwholesome states
