‘Quiet the mind, and the soul will speak.’
Meditation—There are many ways to meditate, but regardless of whether you choose music, movement, stillness, mantras, or breathing, the goal is always the same: stillness of the mind and an inward focus—not to focus on one thing but to become thoughtless. Meditation has been used across the ages to connect with one's inner self and the universal cosmic energy that surrounds us.
Meditation and Yoga have been proven to reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and improve our immune system. A buildup of internal negative emotions becomes a disease in our bodies and outwardly surfaces as ailments and ill health. Strengthening the mind-body connection will help you overcome these blockages and develop better health and clarity.
Combining meditation, pranayama, and yoga is a path towards physical wellness, emotional well-being & spiritual bliss.
