Meditation is something that changed my life significantly and is now a daily ritual. I learned to still my mind, quiet all the noisy thoughts and stresses, and simply just be. Once you start working on your inner world it is amazing the difference you will see in your outer world.
I offer meditation sessions both online and in person in Gamlingay on the edge of Cambridgeshire, or can visit you to lead group meditations for you and your friends in the comfort of your own home. I also visit workplaces (online or in person) delivering group meditation sessions to promote workplace wellbeing, as well as visiting communities to deliver meditation events – please contact me to enquire about workplace bookings or an event for your local community.

What is Meditation?
Meditation has been practiced for thousands of years. It was originally meant to help deepen understanding of the sacred and mystical forces of life. These days, the practice is commonly used for relaxation and stress reduction as it can produce a deep state of relaxation and a tranquil mind.
During meditation, you focus your attention and eliminate the stream of jumbled thoughts that may be crowding your mind and causing stress. This can result in enhanced physical and emotional wellbeing.
There are literally hundreds of different kinds and styles of meditation, and it’s important to try some different techniques to find what works for you. But the aim with any meditation is to focus on just one thing – be it your breath, the sounds around you, love, or another specific word like peace. Find a place where you can be still and quiet, sit comfortably, and either follow a guided meditation or sit in silence focusing on one of these things. And all you have to do if your mind wanders is bring it back. But that’s not a goal – if you set yourself a goal then it’s not meditation.
As and when your mind wanders or thoughts crop up, which they will to begin with – this is just your mind trying to take control – simply observe them, allow them, and just let them pass through, then bring your attention back to your breath, sounds, or the word that you’re meditating upon.
Start with 10-15 minutes a day and build from there, and if you want to make it a regular habit it’s advisable to set aside the same time each day or join a regular group session. Depending on your preference you could do this with music in the background, or following a guided meditation from YouTube or your app of choice. If your mind wanders simply bring it back to the object of your attention, allowing any thoughts to pass through.
