Benefits of Meditation

Dont be so quick to medicate, instead

All natural, All You

Imagine yourself...

Calm, balanced, peaceful. Visualize your best self- aware, focused, clear.

Find a quiet space free from distraction. You may want to meditate in silence, or combine it with sound healing.

Initially, seated meditation is best, as lying down may cause you to drift off to sleep. A cushion may provide added comfort and support. Find a seated cross-legged position place hands in lap and begin by closing your eyes.

Take a deep breath, inhale, exhale. Notice where you feel the breath. How much air is coming through each nostril? Is it stronger on one side than the other? Is your breathing deep or shallow?

As you notice, pay attention to the sensation of the air against your skin, the fabric of your clothes against your body. The feeling of support coming from below you, the feeling of your seat on the cushion or chair beneath you.

See if you can lengthen and deepen each inhalation and exhalation. We recommend timing each inhale and exhale in increments of 4 seconds each to begin with. Set the intention to always come back to your breath, even as thoughts arise.

When thoughts arise, as they inevitably will, let them come and go. Don't worry about controlling or limiting them, rather, let them arise, see if you can observe them as one would observe birds flying in the sky. Notice yourself as well. Are you clinging to them, are there feelings attached? Try and refrain from judging, criticizing, or being hard on yourself. Instead, just notice.

Be gentle, and feel proud of yourself for any space you are creating in your mind between each thought. come back to the breath as often as you can.

Over time, you will develop the feeling of coming home to yourself.

We wish you a fruitful journey of self-discovery, liberation, and health.

Explore Meditation

When we meditate, we are allowing ourselves to come to a place where we can assess things from our own point of view. We become mindful of the thoughts we hold and the way it shapes our experience. With a daily practice this awareness can grow into an elevated perspective beyond our current way of seeing things. This is really just the beginning of what the journey of meditation can unveil.

Meditation is Measurable

Meditation is a science. During meditation, brain scans see increased activity in regions that directly correlate with decreased anxiety and depression along with increased pain tolerance. It also physically changes our brain shape and size. The default mode network (interacting brain regions that are active when a person is not focused on the outside world) and particularly when the mind is at rest, has been found to improve memory, self-awareness and goal setting.

Meditation changes your brain waves and these frequencies are measurable. Meditators have higher levels of alpha waves which have been shown to reduce feelings of anger sadness and tension.

After 8 weeks of a meditation program, gray matter was more dense in areas associated with regulating emotion, learning and memory processing while grey matter was decreased in the amygdala which deals with fear, stress and blood pressure.

When we look at the entire body, we see decreased blood pressure. and can also see an increase in the variability of heart rate which plays a critical role in properly transporting oxygen and co2 throughout the body.

Information suggests that we only use a small portion of our brains function. We believe meditation is a key to unlocking more of this unrealized potential.
