Meditation is the practice of mindfulness and developing an unwavering attention/flow towards one object/idea.  Meditation is one of the eight limbs of Raja Yoga, an inner path towards Self-Realization or mastery of the mind.  It is a practice that will help focus attention, reduce stress and increase happiness.  As the practice deepens, it provides the path of transformation and change is inevitable.  Not only does Yoga teach you to stand on your own two feet, it also encourages you to look within at your habits, choices, thoughts, words and actions.  Meditation can bring you into a place of discomfort and is for people who want change.  When done over a long period of time, regularly, and with enthusiasm, meditation can open your heart so wide that you can embrace the whole universe and everything it has to offer.  The peace we seek lies within us, only obscured by ignorance, it patiently waits to be revealed.  Stop seeking and awaken awareness. www.sunshineyogalife.com
