Meditation is a mind and body practice that has a very long and rich history that traces its roots to the Eastern part of the world. Meditation is generally practiced by most people to increase calmness and physical relaxation, improving psychological and emotional balance, and enhancing overall health and well-being. Meditation is a practice that will take you to a state of mind where only consciousness and awareness will remain, transcending into a state of being.Meditation is a simple, yet powerful, exercise that forces a person to confront the deepest parts of them. It is to sit in front of a mirror, free from the illusions of life where many of us get caught up in the struggle of wearing masks and putting on a face that is not a true representation of who we really are. It is a truth serum for the mind and soul, forcing us to face truths that we hide from. Meditation is as much as a psychological exercise as it is for the soul. It is a practice that takes you where consciousness and awareness are front and center.
