RICARDO BELLOT: Hi, my name is Ricardo Bellot. I am an instructor here at Premier Martial Arts here in New York City, Midtown. In this clip, we are going to talk about meditation in karate. Meditation is used by almost all martial arts traditionally, okay? Now, when meditating, it's used for several different reasons, to clear the mind, get a piece of mind, relax your body or prepare for a major event. If you are nervous, you are feeling not up to it, you are scared, you are stressed, anything help--meditation helps. So the process of meditation is a breathing process. You breathe in slow through your nose and you exhale slowly out through your mouth. Calming the mind, it is very peaceful, clearing your mind of all thoughts and fixating your thoughts on one thing in particular. So if you are going in for a tournament or if you are going in for a job interview, meditation helps with anything. And this is how you do meditation. You breathe in slowly and you exhale slowly through your mouth. In through your nose and out through your mouth. Meditation is very useful in calming the nerves. If your heart rate is up, if you are really nervous, you are really jittery, meditating will really slow that down and get everything under control. And this is how you do meditation in Japanese karate.
