### A Brief History of Meditation

Meditation has been practiced for over 5,000 years, originating from ancient spiritual traditions in India, China, and beyond. From Buddhist Vipassana to Hindu Dhyana, from Taoist inner alchemy to contemplative prayer, meditation has been a gateway to peace, presence, and inner awakening across cultures.
Today, science-backed mindfulness and meditation practices are used by millions to reduce stress, improve focus, and cultivate emotional resilience.
