Mental Ease: Between the normal stresses of paying bills, taking care of our loved ones, and keeping an eye on long term dreams, we all have moments in a day that feel overwhelming or frustrating. But here’s a fact you should always keep in mind: Life is supposed to feel great! Meditation is a powerful technique you can use to come back into balance whenever you feel yourself getting wound up in hectic thoughts or feelings. Physical Relief: Left unchecked, stress or anxiety about your health, relationships, finances, even your career, can manifest as real physical ailments in the body. Meditation is a sort of “time-out” that produces true physical relief from many temporary and chronic conditions. Muscle relaxation and lowered blood pressure are just the beginning of what you can achieve by calming the mind. Spiritual Growth: I believe that we are all here on this earth for a reason… to contribute beyond ourselves, to share our gifts and abilities with others and to bring about real and lasting change. Meditation is the first step in learning to open your heart and mind to the possibility of this beautiful future and acknowledge your important role in manifesting it. The world needs healers, seekers and lightworkers to help raise the vibration of the whole world, and when you meditate, you’re answering that call.
