Meditation

MeditationI offer mediation group to anyone of any experience because the potential for quieting the mind in a group is greater than by oneself. Stillness and listening can occur, true inner listening which may come as a form of awareness of the breath, of energy in and around the body or an insight into a worn out mental pattern that can literally be transformed while meditating. The letting go of negative energy occurs and what replaces it is light, lightness of being, a feeling of one’s true self, a sense of calm, an inner spaciousness.

Many of the people who have come to my mediation group practices had limited experience or “success” and found that they were able to sit in silence for 45 minutes! And they thought that only 10 minutes had gone by.

"Meditation is the discovery that the point of life is always arrived at in the immediate moment." — Alan Watts

"Turn your vision inward and the whole world will be full of supreme spirit." — Ramana Maharshi

— Dr. Wayne Dyer

"It's not about having any particular experience. The practice is about opening to whatever presents itself." — Joel Goldsmith
