HOW TO PRACTICE BASIC MEDITATION

How to Begin a Basic Meditation Practice Get Into a Comfortable Position , You want to be able to completely relax while still staying awake. BE MINDFUL OF YOUR POSTURE. Close Your Eyes Gently LET GO.Keep your jaw slack, You want to relax all of your facial muscles. Your REAL goal is to relax every part of your body. DEEP BREATHS HELP REMOVE TENSION FROM THE BODY.

Join me in a "drop in" Sunrise and Sunset Mediation Classes on Mercer Island at LeGuerisseur Healing Center.      Meditation research has been rolling in steadily for a number of years now, with new studies coming out every week to illustrate new benefits of meditation. With studies reporting that meditation helps relieve our levels of anxiety and depression, while improve attention, concentration, and overall well-being. There’s certainly a lot of evidence that it may do some good for those who practice it regularly.      Meditation isn’t about becoming a different person, a new person, or even a better person. It’s about training in awareness and getting a healthy sense of perspective. You’re not trying to turn off your thoughts or feelings. You’re learning to observe them without judgment. And eventually, you may start to better understand them as well. I Love those.....Ahhhhhaaaa moments! The clarity mediation brings. I have read that, Meditation can Preserv

Get Pain Free, a better body, and Keep improving your health overtime.  I have witnessed a trend.  It matters if you are athletic in high school.  Not because of popularity or scholarships, but because you are establishing a lifetime habit of self-love and self-care.  You feel endorphins, you work hard, and see results of the work, you feel connected to your body, and often community. It is healthy. Then we go to college. And...for those that are athletic, you have a healthy way to relieve stress and tension.  This is where we see bodies begin to change.  Not only hormonally, but lifestyle habits.  sedentary ... drinking... not sleeping... not exercising... not hydrating... not expressing self love. Then we get married, and have children. And we are taught: we are to take care of spouse and child(s), and put there needs before our own... UGH! WRONG!!!! Years later, kids graduate, and you have an ugly, fat, empty nest. Your body aches, hurts, pains... your posture is
