What is Meditation?

Meditation is a practice where a person uses some technique to go deeper into their subconscious. Whether it may be through mindfulness, thinking intentionally about a subject, perhaps a thought, a written word, or focusing on training the mind to be attentive and aware of the emotion and feelings that a person is experiencing at that moment.

The heart of the practice is to gauge deeper into oneself and connect to the mind, whether emotionally or spiritually. The idea is to be in a positive and conscious state. It feels like we’re riding the passenger seat in our minds often in our lives and not driving the vehicle. And often, the decisions we make impulsively can frustrate us, cause us anxiety, or just an overwhelming amount of negative emotion.
