Meditation
is the foundation of almost all inner practices. It quiets the
mind, opens us to other dimensions, and releases us from our obsessions
about and attachments to external objects, people, or to our own
beliefs or story. There are hundreds of good ways to meditate.
There is no one-size-fits-all “right way” to meditate.
Experiment with various methods until you find the right one for
you.
