The scientific community has studied different styles of meditation for over 20-odd years, and it has found meditation has numerous benefits. These include but are not limited to reduction in stress, depression and anxiety. It has also been shown physically to reduce pain, blood pressure and heart rate.

Ian Gawler in his meditation book Pure and Simple states “Amidst the busyness and erstwhile craziness of modern life, it is the silence that brings a gentle sigh of relief, a refreshment to the soul, sanity to the everyday moment. It is the silence that restores the gentle, good humoured smile of inner contentment.”
Meditations can be long or short, simple or complex, but they are easy to incorporate into your day-to-day lives. As a trained meditation facilitator, I can assist you or your team on your meditation journey.
