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.

This course will take you through three explorations: How can I discover what fulfills me? How do I translate what I enjoy into real marketplace opportunities?
