How to Meditate (w/ Mudras)

how to meditate

Meditation is a practice that can benefit your health and wellness in so many ways. I’ve been trying to meditate more lately, so I was inspired to make a basic how to meditate video focusing on creating beautiful visuals.

Do you meditate? I’m curious to know why you meditate and how it’s affected your life 🙂
