Guided meditations to stay focused on the breath, thoughts, and sensations to increase presence
Mindfulness meditations bring you into the present moment with cues to become aware of thoughts, feelings, sensations, and the breath. This technique is simple — but can take practice — and has many benefits, including easing anxiety, reducing stress, focusing the mind, and processing emotions. Mindfulness can be used in day-to-day activities, but these classes are primarily practiced seated.
