What is Meditation? Meditation has three essentials elements: Relaxation, Watching and a Non-Judgmental Attitude. Through these, slowly, slowly a great silence descends over you.
You will learn a variety of ancient and modern methods that help you enter into this state of meditation. Each method starts with movements or specially designed activities to first release mind/body stress and anxiety. This creates a space to sit silently and move into stillness. These unique meditation techniques are easy to learn, enjoyable and can be used in daily activities.
