About
6 years ago, I was utterly miserable. Work stress made me collapse in a meeting and I had to be rushed to ER!
At home, I coped with stress in a wrong way and didn’t listen to my family who truly cared for me. Eventually my wife and kids left me.
As if It wasn’t enough, I developed an auto-immune disease of the eye, where I was in danger of losing my eyesight.
The doctor quickly prescribed medicines. Unfortunately, I developed rare side effects and couldn’t continue.
I was hopeless. I thought I was going to die. I realized something had to change big time!
While searching for natural cures, I stumbled upon research on the benefits of mindfulness and meditation.
As an engineer with a Master’s degree, I had scoffed at meditation earlier. I thought it was nonsense. But now I found compelling research on the benefits of practicing mindfulness.
I had fallen so much flat on my face that I had opened up and was ready to try anything and everything.
I started practicing meditation. Having sucker-punched in life, I hoped meditation would do the miracle. But the miracle didn’t happen.
