meditation for stress
mohan k asked:

some thoughts, dispute them plz..

I hear many advises which say meditation relieves stress. I feel this is false because meditation just numbs your stress by ignorance. You train your mid to ignore whats happening in your surrounding. I fear this might be harmful to you in the long run because you might loose you natural instinct to feel and sense things.

Rather why not just sweat out by doing some kind of exercise( sports, jogging), then relax with a small nap. I feel sweating out, deals STRESS in a complete deferent way.
1) By occupying yourself in a much physically demanding work you divert your thinking and
2) your mind might end up feeling that the stress you had felt are nothing compared to what you experienced while playing a physically demanding sport.

On the contrary, meditation might deal stress better in people who work in very physically demanding work.
