I invite you to take two minutes to pause your other activities, expand the image above and immerse yourself into a brief mini-meditation that people say is restful, rejuvenating and relaxing.

Here’s the science behind my mini-meditation videos:

  • Watching nature videos has been found to promote physiological restoration;

  • Soothing music has also been found to promote the body’s relaxation response;

  • The images and music offer you a focal point for your mind and senses and become an easy to access meditative activity that promotes a sense of calm.

Rx. Anytime you feel stressed, just reach for a mini-meditation and give yourself a moment’s pause to relax and rejuvenate.

P.S. You can find many of my short mini-meditations ( twenty five to sixty seconds in length) under Dr SD Shanti on Instagram.

To your health!
