The best place to start is to understand what meditation really is in the first place. It is very likely that the first picture that comes to your mind when you think about meditation is of a person practicing yoga with their legs crossed, however, according to the US Department of Health and Services, meditation is defined as being a "mind-body practice" in the study of Complementary and Alternative Medicine or CAM.
The practice of meditation can refer to many different types of techniques, which include a relaxation response, a Zen Buddhist meditation, a mantra meditation or a mindfulness meditation. Most of the meditation techniques used today come directly from the spiritual traditions or religions of Eastern culture. People all over the world utilize these meditation techniques more for a mind-body health and wellness experience than as a part of religious or cultural expressions and beliefs.
