The Power and Benefits of Meditation/Visualization

 

Meditation has been practiced for thousands of years. Anyone can practice meditation. It's simple it can be free and it doesn't require any special equipment.  Meditation can produce a deep state of relaxation and a tranquil mind.

 

Meditation can be done anywhere — while you are out for a walk, riding the bus, in line at the market, waiting at the doctor's office, in a classroom or even in the middle of a difficult business meeting.
