Let’s meditate together

Do you sometimes feel that you never have time for yourself? That you live your life in a whirlwind of deadlines, chores, an ever lengthening to-do list, gloomy headlines, and the feeling that no matter how fast you run, the wheel is spinning ever faster?

It doesn’t have to be this way. Step out of your daily routine and spend a few moments being, rather than doing. Focusing on you. Coming fully into the present moment, rather than racing through it focused on the next thing.

Take a few moments to be truly alive. Who wants to look up and realize that life has passed you by while you weren’t paying attention? Enter: meditation.

As Jon Kabat-Zinn’s book so aptly implies, meditation allows us to literally and figuratively come to our senses. (Coming to Our Senses: Healing Ourselves and the World through Mindfulness by Jon Kabat-Zinn.)

Experience the transformative power of group meditation

Meditation doesn’t need to be a solo journey. Meditating with a group of people enhances your focus, fosters connection, improves motivation and overall creates a different energy than when you are alone.

So, let’s meditate together! As a group, let us pause together and breathe. If you would like to experience an in-person group meditation there are two offers now available (see below for details).

Winter blues?

Did you know that mindfulness meditation is as effective as an anti-depressant for treating anxiety?(1) In the first randomized clinical trial to compare these two treatments, Georgetown University researchers proved that a program of guided mindfulness meditation was as effective as the use of a gold-standard anti-depressive drug.

This is far from the only study of mindfulness meditation’s effect on depression, anxiety and health in general. Evidence for the health benefits of meditation have been so profound that researchers have turned their attention to the “mechanism of action”, in other words, how meditation improves our health so significantly.

According to Deborah Norris, Ph.D., Founder of The Mindfulness Center, the clinical benefits of mindfulness practices have been explored “for treatment of just about every mental and physical health condition known to humankind” and “…the practice of meditation has been found to affect clinical outcomes for most every clinical condition defined by medical science.”(2) Mindfulness meditation has been shown to improve skin conditions, reduce the incidence of heart disease and major cardiac events, relieve or drastically reduce chronic pain, enhance the health of diabetics and improve quality of life and survival outcomes for cancer patients. (3)

If meditation were a medication, it would be a blockbuster drug!

So what are you waiting for? Join us and enjoy the countless benefits of meditation.
