Whether you are thinking an upcoming job interview or whether you are worried about your kids, the result will be the same, You will find yourself lacking peace of mind and in need of relaxation.

Meditation is a state of relaxed concentration where you focus your thoughts on some kind of an object like a candle or a flower. you can also focus on your awareness itself (focusing on your breathing rate or on the movement of your belly during breathing).

During meditation your aim would be clearing your mind of these flying thoughts and thus reach a clear state of mind. Its so normal that you find thoughts jumping in your mind every now and then while meditating. Just observe the thought without getting involved with it emotionally. Watch it while being detached from it and let it go.
