Meditation is an act (or non-act, if you insist!) of controlling your mind.
Whatever you have heard, the objective of meditation is 100% absolute focus.
What you focus on is up to you and the form of meditation you are practicing.

A few of the options are:

1. your breathing, nothing more and nothing less
2. a mantra, saying or affirmation
3. an ideal such as love or gratitude
4. a problem, such as how you are consumed with desire or suffering
5. a quiet mind (opinions on what this is vary)
6. swaying or some other form of rhythmic movement
7. a repetitive sound such as a beating drum, heart, etc.

The practice of meditation provides the benefits one might expect from a
mental giant who controls his or her mind well. These cover a range of
primarily mental and emotional abilities but can also touch upon physical
strengths and possibly even diagnoses.

The first thing you might notice when meeting a person who has meditated regularly
for a long time is the bright stillness of his or her eyes.

How could someone so still be dissembling or dishonest? His very eyes
seemed to see my soul and exactly what I needed and could afford.

The second thing you may realize when talking with a meditator is they do not
seem to be glancing around, looking for what is going on in the background,
or at their watch. They do not appear to be considering what they will say next.
You wonder what you will say after they say what they are
going to say, but it is clear they have not yet decided what they will
say because they are so alertly, intently still listening to you.

Could it be mediators put their own emotions through the same listening process?
They certainly seem less frequently buffeted to and fro than a person
who has not learned mental control. A hackneyed Psychology 101
question comes into play here: Do you run because you are scared,
or are you scared because you are running?
You may think fear sets off screaming, and it might. But screaming
sets off far more fear, as you know if you enjoy horror movies!

What do greater focus, improved stillness and emotional control do to our body?
Is it possible the acceptance meditation engenders lowers blood pressure,
thus reducing the chances of heart attacks and stroke?
