Meditation is also known as mindfulness which is the awareness that

Emerges through paying attention on purpose and non-judgmentally  to the unfolding of moment-to-moment experience.

In other words we can say meditation involves trying to train your thought to stay in the present moment,because in the present moment there is true peace.Sometimes thoughts of the future become the cause of anxiety and leading to fear.
