Meditation
Meditation increases resilience and makes your life better. It’s not hard to learn, and in return for a few minutes of practice a day it will make you happier, more engaged, dynamic and creative. How? It works on a combination of deep rest for the nervous system to release the build up of stress tension and fatigue and stimulation of the brain to increase its operating power and bandwidth.
I specialise in a meditation practice based on Vedic philosophy, known as Vedic Meditation. I teach in a way to bring meditation to where you are, rather than expecting you to make huge unrealistic life changes. You don’t have to adopt a whole lot of beliefs, or put on a robe and become celibate - but you can if you want. You do it your way with guidance from me. Meditation works for me and I want to share the benefits I experience with others. Simple as that.
All you need is ten to twenty minutes once or twice a day, a comfortable place to sit, and eyelids. The technique uses specific mantras effortlessly whispered internally, naturally moving you to deep states of rest. Yes, even deeper than sleep. At the same time your brain is stimulated in total coherence. It’s a thing.
All meditation has its place. But this technique is different and unique compared to the guided apps or concentration techniques which are quite common as it allows the body to hit different states of brain wave activity, rest and consciousness. (Click here to read the science) The benefits flow from there. Anxiety, depression, insomnia, stress, fatigue; meditation makes all these things easier to cope with if not eliminating them all together.
Benefits of Meditation
I focus on performance and happiness. We are in an era where burnout, stress, fatigue and overwhelm are standards in the workplace and life in general(reference). I aim to increase your knowledge and give you the tools to combat these issues we are all facing.
If you reckon you’re too busy to meditate, then you probably need to. And you are not alone - we all think we’re too busy. There has been a massive increase in people taking up meditation in recent years and its due to one thing in particular:
The benefits that meditators have claimed for years are now backed by science. Over four decades worth that supports the impact of meditation in cutting stress and anxiety, making you more creative, productive, clear, energised, happy, aware and healthy - you’ll also get sick less. (reference) Research even suggests it reverses your biological age. Yes that’s what I said.
You don’t have to feel ‘stressed’ to gain benefits, I use it as a performance technique. Your body is built to accumulate stress and we often just normalise the experience. What are the main barriers to performance and happiness? Stress, fatigue and mental distractions. A regular meditation practice will clear out the build-up of stress and fatigue in your body and will allow you to perform at your optimal level in all areas of your life. The practice is easy and you can do it basically anywhere.
Meditation. No longer just for hippies and monks.
