How To Succeed at Meditation

Be aware of things around you. Notice your breath, notice nature. In this podcast, I talk about concerns that my students in Yoga classes and in private lessons have about meditating.
Don't push away uncomfortable feelings in meditation. Feelings are temporary and fleeting.
You have control over your thoughts and feelings. This is why we meditate, this is why we practice yoga.
