Guided meditation operates as a structured and verbalized practice aimed at inducing relaxation, focus, and mindfulness. Commencing in a quiet and comfortable environment, participants often close their eyes to eliminate external distractions. The session typically kicks off with an introduction from the facilitator, establishing intentions and preparing participants for the meditation experience. Verbal guidance forms the core of the practice, as the facilitator directs individuals through progressive relaxation, breath awareness, body scanning, and visualization techniques.
