Meditation Quotes

'Breathe in, breathe out!' Meditation might seem just about these four words, but in effect, it has a lot more to offer. If you say yoga is for the body, then meditation is the workout for your mind. It is a technique where you discipline your mind and benefits the overall senses in the process, resulting in a calm mind that increases your concentration.

The development of meditation was seen in Taoist China and Buddhist India, approximately in the 5th and 6th century BCE.
