🧘♀️ Meditation is Integration 🌿 We often think of meditation as escape — a pause from the noise. But true meditation is not a withdrawal; it’s a return — a reuniting of all the scattered parts of ourselves. Every time we sit, breathe, and turn inward, we are practicing integration : ✨ The breath and body synchronize. ✨ Thoughts are observed, not resisted. ✨ Emotions are welcomed, not judged. ✨ The past and future lose their grip — and the present opens. ✨ The fragmented “I” dissolves into a whole awareness. In meditation, we are not becoming someone new. We are remembering who we are — beyond the roles, the labels, the noise. “Yoga is the cessation of the fluctuations of the mind.” — Yoga Sutras I.2 In that stillness, we don’t escape the world; we integrate with it more fully. When we return from meditation, we return whole. Meditation is not separation. It is union. It is Yoga. It is Integration.
