Meditation 01: By Candlelight

Deep winter is a time for inner focus and reflection. With the inward pull of winter comes a natural connection with your third eye, ajna chakra. This energy center is the center of your connection to the subconscious and superconscious: both the gateway to your inner world and to your connection with the Divine.

This traditional trataka meditation (candle gazing) aims to improve focused concentration by setting the mind on a single point, letting all else fall away. It’s a perfect way to reconnect with yourself in these deep winter months.

Pair this meditation after this season’s Sadhana practice or try it on its own.
