How Meditation Works

  1. Mindfulness: This involves paying attention to the present moment without judgment. Practitioners observe their thoughts, feelings, and sensations as they arise, fostering a deep awareness of the present experience.

  2. Concentration: This method focuses on a single point of attention, such as the breath, a mantra, or an object. By continually bringing the mind back to this point of focus, practitioners develop greater concentration and mental stability.

  3. Guided Meditation: This involves following the guidance of a teacher or an audio recording to enter a meditative state. Instructions may include visualization, body scans, or progressive relaxation techniques.
