Typically done in a quiet space with minimal distractions-often seated or reclined with eyes closed-sessions last from a few minutes to an hour, aiming to cultivate mental clarity, calmness, and insight. Practices often use breath control, visualization, or body scans to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation and emotional balance. Regular practice leads to neuroplastic changes in brain regions like the prefrontal cortex and amygdala, improving resilience and cognitive performance. It also helps develop mindfulness and other positive mental states.
