“The Power Of Meditation: How It Helped Me Overcome Autism”

I never would have thought that something as simple as meditation could help me so much, but it did. I was diagnosed with autism when I was five years old and growing up was tough. I had a lot of trouble communicating with people and felt like I was always on the outside looking in. But then I discovered meditation and it changed everything.

Meditation helped me to focus my mind and to be more present in the moment. It also helped me to feel more connected to other people and to the world around me. I started to see that I wasn’t so different after all and that there was a place for me in this world. Meditation gave me the power to overcome my autism and to create the life that I wanted.

“Meditation And Autism: A Case Study”

Meditation has been shown to be an effective intervention for individuals with autism. A recent study found that after eight weeks of meditation, participants had significantly lower levels of anxiety and depression, and improved social functioning. The study’s lead author said that the findings suggest that “meditation may be a promising intervention for reducing symptoms associated with autism.”
