Meditation is about optimizing yourself so that you make the right moves, say the right things, and think the right thoughts at the right time. It’s a foundational practice that clears the mind so you can be you. We all have something we need to improve upon, meditation helps us make the improvements. The cool thing is that it all comes from within you. You are the driver and the one who decides. Meditation clears the path so you can make the best choices for yourself. This is not self-help, this is self-development. Not in the sense that you’re building yourself up, but in the sense that you are developing your awareness and compassion. It’s a great way to cultivate space and openness within. If practiced correctly, It can be the tool that helps us be more present.
