Meditation

Meditation - what is it? It's a practice resting the mind and cultivating awareness of the present moment.

It often involves focusing on something simple—such as your breath, a word or phrase, a visualization, or body sensations—and gently noticing thoughts without judgment. Over time meditation can reduce stress, help calm the mind, increase clarity, improve emotional balance, and support overall well‑being.

Simple Meditation Techniques

• Breath Awareness: Sit comfortably, close your eyes or soften your gaze, and simply notice your breathing. Feel the rise and fall of your chest or belly. If your mind wanders, gently return your attention back to the breath. (Source: Wellness Path | Soul Care Studio & Spa)

• Guided Meditation / Visualization: Use a recorded or live guide who leads you through imagery—such as imagining a calm lake, a forest, or being by flowing water. Notice the sensory details (sounds, smells, colors). (Source: Verywell Mind)

• Loving‑Kindness (Metta) Meditation: Silently repeat phrases of kindness and compassion—for yourself, for someone close, for someone neutral, even someone difficult. E.g. “May I/May you be safe, may you be happy, may you be peaceful.” (Source: MasterClass)

• Walking Meditation / Movement Meditation: Instead of sitting still, walk slowly. Pay attention to each step, how your feet connect with the ground, the movement in your legs. Let yourself be aware of your surroundings as you move. (Source: Heart Path Yoga)

• Mantra / Repetition Meditation: Use a word or short phrase (a mantra) that you repeat silently in your mind (or out loud if you prefer). This gives your mind something to return to, helping reduce distraction. (Source: Healthline)
