This meditation grants the individual increased recovery of mana, health, spirit, and stamina. After remaining in a silent meditative state for two minutes, the individual may again become active and retain the meditative benefits for an additional ten minutes, so long as they remain in an appropriate location.

Those with knowledge of the Telekinesis spell may also use MEDITATE TELEKINESIS to specify the amount of mana (6-10) to use when the spell is cast.</pre>
