According to Medito, there are many forms of meditation. All of which help you cultivate mindfulness. Practising one of these methods will help you to become more mindful or in touch with reality. By training you to keep your awareness in the present moment, rather than getting lost in thought. Meditation uses an object of focus to anchor you to the present moment. This object could be breath, sound, sensation or anything in the present that you focus on. When we meditate, we are concerned only with the now. The past is a memory, and the future is an expectation. We are entirely in the present, where reality is.
