As caregivers it is often challenging to carve out time for our selves. Through weekly small group meditations you will have an opportunity to shift your focus from others to yourself.

Research has shown that during meditation there is a shift in brain activity, this mental shift results in a decrease of the negative effects of stress, mild depression and anxiety.
Additional benefits of regular meditation have been shown to relieve headaches, migraines, fatigue, insomnia and chronic pain. Individuals may also experience feelings of increased energy and confidence. So the potential benefits are many and to put it simply the experience is typically expressed as being enjoyable and relaxing, the rest is the work of your body’s ability to heal itself!

Through the use of breathing techniques and guidance we will focus our minds to achieve a deep sense of relaxation. By removing the ‘chatter’ of our everyday lives we will create a calm and peace within as our bodies and our spirits.

As caregivers our common state of awareness is focused on someone other than ourselves and for many of us it has become a pattern that is difficult to break; always giving we put off receiving. It is in the receiving that our body, mind, and spirits are balanced, and peace and calm are realized and felt throughout our whole being.

Through a series of weekly, guided meditations we will open our hearts to love and forgiveness of ourselves and of others. We will clear energy blockages and let go of thoughts and feelings that are holding us back, and allow a sense of well-being within.
