Did you know…
There are significant potential benefits for your mind and body when you meditate and practice mindfulness? There is now a huge body of scientific evidence and research studies that show how meditation can positively impact our health and wellbeing. The NHS now recognises and recommends mindfulness as a complimentary therapy, and this is a type of meditation that can be easily integrated into your daily life.
Meditation isn’t about turning off our brains; it’s about taking some time to observe our minds and bodies as they are, learning techniques and tools for letting go of worries and anxieties about the past and the future, and instead embracing and accepting the present moment. There are lots of ways you can meditate, methods you can use, and places and times you can do it; it isn’t one size fits all, its about exploring and experimenting to find what suits you.
Meditation can:
Reduce stress, anxiety & pain
Reduce blood pressure, cholesterol & cellular aging
Improve sleep & emotional regulation
Help regulate the nervous system & strengthen the immune system
Improve focus, creativity & productivity
Cultivate a positive outlook & feeling of connection
Bringing a sense or calm, clarity & compassion

The key is to be comfortable so wear things you’ll be happy sitting still in for the class. Consider bringing along an extra layer, cushion or blanket to make sure you’re cosy. If you prefer to lay down for some of the meditations, please bring your own yoga mat. If you fancy bringing along a little notepad to jot down which meditations you enjoyed or reflections you’d like to record, then that’s great too.
