Limb 6 – Dharana
Dhāraṇā may be translated as "holding", "holding steady", "concentration", or "single focus". The mind wanders in different directions because of the influence exerted by each of the five senses (smell, taste, vision, touch and sound). The goal of dharana is to restrain the mind and prevent it from wandering, in turn focusing on the Self. More on UnbotheredWellness.com.
