I am studying meditation and believe that doing daily mindful activities such as paying attention to basic things such as driving, walking, eating etc is as effective as sitting and doing a more formal meditation.
We know meditation works but I want to know why it works.
Help me to investigate this further by taking part in my research.

How Meditation Works:
Meditation involves sitting in a relaxed position and clearing your mind. You may focus on a sound, like "ooommm," or on your own breathing, or on nothing at all. It’s necessary to have at least 5 to 20 distraction-free minutes to spend. (Longer meditation sessions bring greater benefits, but sometimes starting slowly can help you maintain the practice long-term.) It’s helpful to have silence and privacy, but more practiced meditators can practice medtation anywhere. Many practitioners of meditation attach a spiritual component to it, but it can also be a secular exercise.

Meditation works because your logical mind is shut or sidetracked.As a result you get connected to your Budhi(wisdom),intuitive part of mind,and through that to the ultimate.
