Meditation - The practice of meditation is most commonly defined as turning inward to one's self for guidance, or healing as well as a vast number of other reasons. The English word "meditation" originates from the Latin word "meditation", which originally indicated every type of physical or intellectual exercise, then later evolved into the more specific meaning "contemplation."
