Phylicia Rashad starts each day with a meditation session. "A day without meditation is like a day without sunshine," she said in Baltimore, where she spoke on behalf of a mediation group. "Meditation makes you whole." Rashad, who plays Clair Huxtable on "The Cosby Show," became an adherent of Siddha meditation more than 10 years ago when she attended a workshop in the Catskill Mountains. "There were many obstacles in getting there," she said. "I hadn't worked in 2 1/2 years but when I saw (the swami), I knew I saw the truth. It was a knowledge within my heart."
