Animals Finding Zen

The image of a meditating monkey amongst monks beautifully illustrates how animals can engage in peaceful, Zen-like behaviors.

Animals often seek and enjoy environments that offer safety and quiet.

Which is similar to the calmness humans might seek through meditation.

Fun Fact

Interestingly, studies have suggested that animals can respond positively to the calming effects of meditation practices.

For instance, pets have been observed to show decreased signs of stress when in the presence of owners who regularly engage in meditation.

This not only improves the welfare of the animals but also fosters a stronger bond between pets and their owners.
