What is essential is the practice of a method (called meditation) to become free of the mind. This is the only way of understanding who we really are outside of the mind's limitations. What is interesting is how science is catching up with it's "new research" to what the mystics have been saying for centuries. Body Mind healing is one niche of that new paradigm, which we go into on the website www.4transform.com. Meditation is activity from a center of inactivity. That is the meaning of the zen term "non action", or wu-wei. Even sitting and watching the breath is activity. Shooting an arrow, shaking, whirling, chanting, there are many forms of activity which have been the gate to inner non action.
Forms and processes which understand this truth are featured here on this channel.
