"Yogas Chitta Vritti Nirodha" (योगश् चित्तवृत्तिनिरोधः) is the foundational sutra of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, and it translates to: “Yoga is the cessation of the fluctuations of the mind.”

 🧘‍♀️ 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.
