Getting Your Mind Back on Track

Tobin Hart, a professor of psychology at the University of West Georgia defines meditation like this:

“A third way of knowing that complements both the rational and the sensory. Designed to quiet and shift the habitual chatter of the mind. To cultivate a capacity for deepened awareness, concentration and insight.”

Who doesn’t need more of THAT?

However meditation works, research is teaching us that meditation is helpful when our brain really needs to get back on track after suffering from the damaging impact of trauma and suffering.

Weeks away from what has been a contentious political season in the midst of a pandemic, what the hell could it hurt?

Today, practice. Sit and breathe. Go quiet. Wait for the shift away from chatter to deepened awareness, concentration and insight.
