Meditations for Everyday

Allow our trusted Practitioner Toral to guide you through these wonderful daily Meditations.

Meditation allows the body and mind to relax, recover and rejuvenate, bringing a sense of calm & balance.

Regular Meditating can help to encourage our brains ‘delta’ waves which are synonymous with a really deep state of relaxation such as we experience when we have a peaceful sleep, or experience other deeply relaxing interventions. These delta waves benefit us by boosting our immune systems, and bring a sense of clarity and harmony.

Here are a few tips you can incorporate to help the process:

  • Take yourself off to a nice quiet space, where you are not likely to be disturbed (turn your phone to silent, or better still off altogether)
  • Make sure you are warm enough, comfy and well supported with cushions and throws
  • You can sit or lie down, whatever feels right for you
  • Most people like to close their eyes, but this is not compulsory
  • You might like to have some gentle relaxing music in the background, dim the lights or light a scented candle
  • Alternatively being in nature and feeling the warmth of the sun on your face or a warm breeze can be helpful

Affirmations

Some of our meditations include the use of positive affirmations – if these feel uncomfortable to hear or repeat in anyway – you could try replacing them with a different phrase such as:

  • ‘I feel a little calmer’
  • ‘I am learning to relax more’

If you prefer you could just direct your focus to your breath, and slowing it down.

Grounding Process

Each Meditation includes a grounding process towards the end. This is really important and helps to cement your experience, safely bringing you back to the present moment. You can support this process by drinking some water both during and at the end of every meditation.

Closing thought…

Be gentle with yourself, particularly if you are new to meditating. Some days it comes more easily than others.  You will soon find your favourite meditation, and remember to be gentle and to take it slowly - It takes time to reap the benefits of Meditation, I promise it will be worth the practice.

Happy Meditating!
