What is Meditation?meditation_home_web

Meditation is the practice of ‘quieting’ the mind, in order to cultivate a feeling of inner peace. It is a spiritual practice, dating back hundreds of years, and has been shown to improve both mental and physical well-being. Meditation can be undertaken at any time, alone or as part of a group.

What can I expect from a session?

Meditation in practice involves focusing on your breathing, posture and concentration in a relaxed setting, guided by an experienced practitioner. Both individual and group sessions are available. You may be asked to focus on an external object, such as a plant or candle flame, and the practitioner will guide you through the process of clearing your mind of all thoughts. Afterwards, you may feel your relaxed state continuous for some time after a session. Daily meditative practice is advised for lasting results.
