Description: In this meditation the breath is used as a grounding space to come back to. When the mind drifts, we can apply a label - either "desire", "aversion", or "noise" to simplify the narrative and take away some of its power, and then return to our breath. By continually doing this, we begin to slow down the busy mind and find stillness.
