Intention Through Meditation

The most common phrase I hear at the beginning of meditation classes is, “I can’t clear my mind!” Don’t worry, clearing your mind is not the goal of meditation. The goal of meditation is to sit (or walk, or lie, or do yoga poses, or run, or…or…or) in the silence, concentrating on one thing. When your mind drifts (when…not if), you gently bring it back on topic. Just the awareness that your mind has drifted is a signal that you are indeed meditating. (More)
