Description

When our mind is agitated, uptight or anxious, it can be very difficult to get a good night’s sleep. Through regular meditation we can gradually eliminate mental disturbances and generate a state of internal peace that is integrated into our daily routine, so that our lifestyle itself helps us to sleep well.
