World Meditation Day will be observed today (Friday) for the first time in the country aiming at leading a healthy and peaceful life through reviving positivity in soul by practicing meditation.
The theme of the day is ‘Regular meditation: A successful happy healthy life’.
Quantum Foundation has chalked out a daylong programme through its branches and cell offices as well as online to mark the day, which has so far been observed by organisations and institutions in different countries.
Meditation has been recognised as an effective tool to control mind and use brain positively.
It is also considered an exercise of mind that helps recover from various psychosomatic diseases and physical pains including IBS, sleeplessness, migraine, coronary disease and high blood pressure.
Health experts say meditation can be practiced irrespective of age, profession, culture and group and people may benefit equally in controlling mind and health.
Quantum Foundation that has so far offered 474 meditation courses since 1993 made a clarion call to all to join a special meditation at its branch and cell offices at 9:30 am (Friday). It will be simultaneously aired through its website (quantummethod.org.bd) and official YouTube channel.
Various documentaries, art competition and essay writing have also been organised with the theme.
