Meditation

What is meditation?

Meditation is the process of bringing the mind to a single point of focus, allowing our awareness to settle on just one thing. 

How long should a meditation last?

There’s a big misconception that for meditation to be effective, you must practice for lengthy periods over an extensive amount of time. This is not true. Consistent, regular practice yields the best results, however the benefits can be experienced right away by simply meditating for just 5 minutes.

What is mindfulness walking?

This practice affords us the opportunity to give ourselves a bit of a break from the constant mental load. This activity allows you to connect with nature, and actively try to arrive in the present moment with each step. 

Do I need to be able to sit cross-legged on the floor?
