Embodied Meditation

The yoga tradition teaches how valuable it is to spend time quieting all the stimulation, chatter, noise, and distraction that can fill our senses. The practice of quieting and drawing in invites us to listen to ourselves and perhaps, eventually, to touch more focus, clarity, and peace. Today's Embodied Meditation combines slowing-down movements, a guided visualization, and some stillness to cultivate that state of quiet.
