Ko So-young recently posted a photo on her social media with the caption, “Namaste tea ceremony, tea meditation, meditation.” In the released photo, Ko So-young is meditating with her eyes closed and concentrating on her breathing. The sight of a tea ceremony also catches the eye. Let’s learn about the effects of tea ceremony and meditation taught by Ko So-young.
Meditation helps relieve stress and depression through inner relaxation
Meditation is a way to find inner peace and balance through a state of deep relaxation. There are various ways to meditate, but all you have to do is sit comfortably, close your eyes, and breathe deeply. All you have to do is think of your favorite scenery, travel destinations, people, etc. and continuously try to suggest to yourself that your mind and body will become clearer. You can consciously try not to think about anything.
This process has the effect of reducing stress. This is because the secretion of cortisol, the stress hormone, decreases. It is also good for controlling emotions and reducing anxiety or depression. Observing your emotions objectively helps you develop the ability to accept them without overreacting. As a result, regular meditation has a positive effect on the structure and function of the brain. Research has also shown that meditation increases gray matter in the brain and reduces activity in brain areas related to stress.
Maintaining the habit of meditating for a long period of time not only changes your mindset positively, but is also effective in improving your concentration. To analyze the effects of meditation on the brain, a research team from the University of California, Los Angeles examined the brains of 22 people who meditated consistently and 22 people who did not. As a result, the group that meditated for a long period of time had larger brain areas, including the cerebrum and right hippocampus, and showed better brain capacity.
A tea ceremony that trains the mind through tea…is also good for anti-aging
Tea ceremony is the act of drinking tea, that is, it has the meaning of training the mind through tea beyond simply consuming the beverage. Brewing and drinking tea yourself helps clear your mind and relieve negative emotions. The quiet time of brewing tea gives you time to empty your mind and calm down. Even when drinking tea, you can focus on yourself.
Not only is it helpful mentally, but it is also beneficial for improving physical health. Tea is rich in polyphenols, antioxidants, theanine, an amino acid, and vitamins. These ingredients reduce inflammation in the body and prevent aging. In particular, theanine is an ingredient called a natural sedative and is effective in stabilizing the nervous system and reducing stress.
