What is meditation?

Meditation is the simple and effortless process of connecting with the silence and peace within. During meditation, our attention flows inward rather than engaging in the outside world of activity. We connect with a deeper level of ourselves, the stillness within, and gradually over time begin to live from a place of steadiness and inner peace.

  • “AMS meditation practices have helped me focus my desire for constant and conscious meeting with the Divine. My experience with meditation previously had been a confusion of Eastern and Western ideas that were stuck in my head. Now I have a stable and unified path that extends into the far reaches of my heart. I appreciate the peace and the clarity I’ve found. I am more open to continuously re-framing my life in the material world as my spiritual consciousness expands to meet All of Life.”

  • “AMS meditation benefits every area of my life. It gives me greater balance, increases energy levels and significantly improves my ability to focus. Meditation also brings me deeper relaxation, lowers stress, and gives me the strength to face challenging life situations. When I meditate, it is an opportunity for me to stop thinking, to go beyond words and thoughts. It brings my attention into the present moment and allows me to live a more fulfilling life.”
