If you seek to deepen in your meditation practice, there is no better friend than the body. Like a venerable teacher, the body has the power to draw you into the present moment, show you how to find stillness and even—if you listen closely—wake you up.

When we allow ourselves to rest deeply, experience can unfold naturally and we come into contact with the very essence of being alive.
