The essence of meditation is a detached observation or witnessing of whatever happens inside (the body, mind, and emotions) and outside (the world around you) without reaction or judgment. Through learning to observe your thoughts and emotions you settle your awareness in the silent stillness of your being.

Although there are many meditation techniques, meditation is not a technique. Meditation is the practice of witnessing. Meditation gives you an opportunity to disidentify from your body, mind, and emotions and experience your inner being. It allows you to step out of the chattering mind and transform your beliefs and conditionings into a purposeful life.

What is the Difference Between Meditation and Visualization

Why Meditate?

Just as regular exercise is essential for your physical health meditation is essential for your mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Meditation will give you an opportunity to disidentify from your mind-chatter and experience inner balance and peace. It will allow you to transform your fear of the unknown and begin enjoying your life fully in the Here and Now. A dedicated meditation practice will lead to increased self-acceptance, self-confidence, and deepen your understanding of yourself and others.
