Explore meditation and its ability to quieten the mind. The simple act of closing our eyes, signals the body to relax, as we do not close our eyes when we’re in danger. Therefore, shutting your eyes for 5-minutes signals to the body that you’re safe and you’re setting an intention to release stress from the body. The more you do this, the more the body becomes comfortable in this state. This simple 5-minute meditation can be done anytime, anywhere.
