      The benefits of meditation and stillness are yet to be fully explored by modern science. We are sharing science-based ancient wisdom for humanity which has proven mental health benefits. The simple Eyes On The Mark (EOTM) meditation training technique has shown to increase clarity, balance, and tranquility in one's life. To practice, follow this 3-step method:1. Sit facing the wall with your back and neck straight, remaining completely still.2. Draw a small x at a comfortable eye-level height.3. Look at the center of the mark for 15-30 mins.(Blinking every 5-15 seconds)Try practicing twice a day. Happy Meditating!
