Nagaloka teaches two basic forms of meditation at events open to the public:
- Mindfulness of Breathing calms both body and mind (handout)
- Metta Bhavana cultivates loving kindness for self and all beings (handout)
Meditation sessions often include a few minutes of chanting (handout)
Other forms of meditation and devotional practice are taught in our advanced training programs.

Benefits of Meditation:
Meditation is a state of increased awareness filled with tranquility and positive emotion.
Beginners to meditation may experience a clear mind with little mental chatter as well as a warm, expansive heart.
Many people experience a sense of contentment and clearer outlook on life, both on-and-off the cushion.
