Breathing and sitting in silence allows you the space to find your joy and what matters most to you.

Meditation is not an isolated act, it is not something you do and then forget about until the next time you practice. Meditation is a skill, a technique you use to help you regain your focus and concentration any time during your day. Being present and aware of your posture, your thoughts, and your breath on a regular basis during your day are as vital as knowing your shoe size.

In meditation, you train your body to be still and your mind to slow down and focus on a point of concentration.
