Emily Fletcher, founder of Ziva Meditation, explains the difference between mindfulness and meditation. Mindfulness is a directed focus style of meditation whereas meditation gives you access to a state of consciousness that is different than waking, sleeping, or dreaming.

Emily Fletcher is the founder of Ziva Meditation and the creator of zivaONLINE, the world’s first online training. Ziva’s mission is to make meditation attractive and accessible to people who are ready to up-level their performance and their lives.
