Take a few minutes of peaceful contemplation to lay the groundwork for deeper practice. In this video Deepak Chopra, M.D., asks you to simply focus on your inner self and notice your breathing. This practice is designed to be a meditation for beginners, but it’s also helpful for more experienced practitioners who just want to take a few minutes of peace with the guidance of a world-renowned expert. Set aside five minutes and feel the sense of calm that quiet reflection can provide.
