MINDFULNESS & MEDITATION
BE MORE PRESENT
Mindfulness is simply becoming more present and focused in the moment. One simple way to do this is by paying attention to your own breath. Following the breath as it flows in and out is deeply calming for the mind, allowing us to slip into more subtle alpha and theta brain wave states.

WHAT IS MEDITATION?
It is the process of letting go of all action, all thoughts, and finding a place of deep relaxation, inner peace, and receptivity to the Divine.
Meditation can be deceptively difficult. It is easy to get sleepy or wander into monkey mind, where the mind races uncontrolled from thought to thought. But over time, it becomes increasingly possible to find a clear and equanimous mind, totally alert yet totally relaxed and free of the unconscious fluctuations that often plague most of our minds.
Once one has been settled for at least 20 minutes, science has found that the mind enters into a deeply peaceful and positive alpha brain wave state. Here the heart and mind are clear and primed to hear from God and to offer prayers and well-wishes.
