Demetrius Mirabal has changed his life by spending at least 30 minutes per day for the past five years sitting in silence atop two cushions.
Mirabal shares his meditation techniques with students in a weekly class offered in the Robert H. Ewalt Recreation Center.
He said the meditation techniques he practices daily can have several positive affects for students, including an increase in focus and academic performance.
"I started seeing results fairly quickly," said Mirabal, "and it has helped me to worry less, be more calm, and not let things stress me out."
