Fill me with your love,
liberate my soul."

MEDITATION - BEING PEACE
Meditation is the primary path to self-realization and inner peace. Through the years and at the side of wonderful meditation teachers, I have gathered many tools to help the mind calm down. I knew at an early age that I would have to find something to "cool" my overdoing mind and I knew I had found it when I discovered the blissful empowerment of meditation.
I know, I know, you don't have time, you have "tried," you can't sit still that long... I have heard every reason for not meditating and I have heard my own. Your mind wants to rule and most of the time you just accept letting your limiting thoughts control you. But here's some truth, there are many ways to let go of all the emotions and information. There are actual tools that anchor you into inner peace.
And what a gift they are.
There are many ways to meditate: eyes open, eyes closed, seeing with your third eye, meditating with your heart, using guided imagery to take you into other realms and into your depth of being, walking in the woods, listening to the ocean, in the light, in the dark, connecting with your cells and calming them, breathing, chanting, eating, being in gratitude, finding compassion in any situation, drinking in color, sound, light, fragrance, and touch. All are ways to quiet the mind and lead instead with love and patience.
Powerful Reasons to Practice Meditation:
- Your life will have the right priorities, starting with peace of mind
- You will begin to breathe in a way that brings instant relaxation
- You will feel your connection to the Creator
- Your ability to focus will increase
- Your nervous system will relax and calm down
- Your overall health will come into balance
- You will stop reacting, learn to notice, and de-stress
- Your intuition will soar
- You will slow down into the present
- You will find beauty in the simplest moments
- You will discover freedom in a way you could not have imagined
