Are you looking for a way to relax, calm your mind, deal with stress, and improve your mood and health?
In this fun and interactive 3-hour “Learn to Meditate” workshop you’ll learn how to set up your own personal practice at home starting with 5 minutes a day.
I specialize in teaching people how to integrate a simple and easy meditation practice into their lives.
This comprehensive workshop is designed to give you the tools and knowledge to establish a Simple, Easy, Every Day (SEED) meditation practice in the comfort of your own home and the convenience of your schedule.
You’ll learn powerful, time-tested practices that are simple and easy to do to improve your health, calm your mind, and build your resilience to stress.
The mainstay of the program is a meditation technique that has you focus on your breath and a silent sound, or mantra, that helps you to direct your attention inward and go beyond your thoughts to re-connect with that place of peace. The technique is powerful, yet simple to do.
The workshop includes:
- An introduction to a meditation practice that is not tied to any religious or spiritual traditions.
- Discovering mindfulness in everyday life.
- Understanding the effects of stress: how it accumulates and how to release it.
- Becoming intimate with the way your mind works.
- Ways in which meditation changes your brain and the findings in neuroplasticity.
- Three ingredients and five essentials for any meditation practice.
- Easy to use meditation techniques.
- How to meditate anywhere and create your own personal practice.
- Peace finder practices- what to do when you’re stressed at work or other situations.
- The difference between meditation and mindfulness.
- How to tap into your intuition to live in alignment with your core values.
- A powerful heart-centred practice with 3 questions that are powerful for gaining clarity about questions in your life.
- Exploring the difference between guided meditations and meditating on your own.
You’ll receive an audio recording and a “Beginner’s Guide to Meditation’ to help your new practice stick.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll be empowered to begin your new meditation and mindfulness practice that will help you thrive physically, emotionally and spiritually.
