Meditation is part of a mindful lifestyle in which people develop their spirituality in and outside religion. The essence of meditation is to bring yourself with body and mind in the here and now. You bring yourself into a state of consciousness in which you are fully focused with your attention on something in the present moment. Your breath is a frequently used anchor because you carry it with you anytime and anywhere. The purpose of meditation can be to relax your body or to clear your mind of thoughts and simply be. In addition to your breath, you can also shift your focus to a visualization or something outside yourself such as the flame from a tea light, a mantra or an image. What works differs per person. Meditation is a form of attention that demands a certain amount of concentration, which you can simply strengthen by practicing daily.Meditations can be performed walking, sitting or lying down.
