A Meditation for Inner Peace & Stillness
It's no secret that stress can take a heavy toll in our lives. Some of this is the result of loss and sorrow; some of it is related to the difficult challenges we all face in life; and some of our anxiety arises from the fast-paced hustle and upheaval in every-day life.
This meditation is designed to slow the pace down, quiet the mind, relax the body and bring about a sense of stillness and inner peace.
