Introduction to meditation
Learn how the simple science, philosophy and practice of meditation can help you to immediately stress less and smile more.
let's start with stress
- Stress is a normal part of life and is a response designed to help us grow through problem solving
- The skill of resiliency is one that we learn by moving through stressful times and gaining confidence in our ability to overcome
- However, with the amount of "stressors" in the world today, many people are experiencing heightened states of anxiety and depression, making it difficult to clear the mind and seek solutions
- This leads to challenges with physical health, sleep, healthy relationships etc.
- By understanding the science of stress and how the practice of meditation can help, you can begin to change your physical and mental state immediately
If you are feeling any of this, you are not alone. I used to be in your shoes. By the time I was 29, I had 3 young children, and a husband that was busy building a business and was never home. On top of that, my oldest child was (and still is), struggling with extreme anxiety and OCD. I was still trying to carve out time from my career as a personal trainer, but felt the pull to learn more about my own mental health as well as those that were under my care. This lead me to the Chopra Centre in California and onto a very important path that I would eventually open to others through my own teacher trainings. I can promise you now that after certifying over 3,000 people to become meditation teachers, that the knowledge that is gained in addition to the meditation practice itself, has been critical in helping others through this recent pandemic. What I've witnessed is nothing short of magical: people who may have only been attending classes for themselves, have been able to step in and support those they love based on the fact that they have a practice that works for them AND the knowledge of how to apply it to others.
