There is a lot of buzz these days about meditation. Are you wondering what all the fuss is about?

There are so many different reasons why people are drawn to meditation. Meditation has proven to be a useful tool to:

lower blood pressure
decrease anxiety
reduce stress
improve sleep quantity and quality
help quiet the mind (from fearful, angry, or painful thoughts)

Many of us live our lives at breakneck speed. Between juggling family and work time, and the constant attachment to the outside world via technology and social media, we have lost the beauty of being present in the moment. It’s a struggle that is common to many. Meditation practices are useful in helping us re-learn how to “just be”, and to reconnect to our thoughts and feelings.

Whether you are following doctor’s orders, working through a painful life experience, are seeking calm in a storm of busy-ness or are interested in pursuing greater self-understanding and increased intuitive powers, meditation can be a powerful and helpful tool.

As many of my clients and friends know, I have been on an ongoing mission to find more calm and peace in my life. I have explored online meditations, yoga, and even had an accountability process set up with a good friend (we texted each other each morning with one line “meditated. 10 minutes” to try and help keep each other on track) . Last year, I had the pleasure of attending a meditation retreat at the incredible Lotus Heart Center in Brighton, Ontario.

The theme of this retreat was “Letting Go”. It felt as if it was designed especially for me. It was an incredible experience and one that I will never forget. It was co-hosted by Andre Lepine, of the Lotus Heart Centre, and Sylvia Abergil, of Evolving Expressions, a woman I had met at my clinic last summer. Sylvia is a gifted guide. It was a privilege to learn from her. One of the things I love most about my job is the opportunity to meet such incredible people, who take life up a notch. Sylvia is one of those people. She emanates light and is generous and wise. She is a Spiritual Mentor, Accredited Relationship Systems Coach, and a Reiki Master. I am grateful to have added “friend” to the list of things that Sylvia is to me. A bit more about Sylvia –

Sylvia finds deep joy and fulfillment in guiding others on their Spiritual path through ancient earth wisdom teachings, relationship coaching, energy work and meditation. Sylvia’s vision is to assist in the raising of human consciousness through self-awareness, intention and mindfulness from the Heart.

As a holistic nutritionist, I am dedicated to helping people discover an optimum path to wellness for themselves. Each individual is unique and different. The path and scope of opportunities certainly extends far beyond what foods we eat. That is a critical component for sure. There are many other lifestyle aspects that can contribute to our well-being. Limiting or managing stress plays a significant role in our well-being.

I am very excited to announce that Sylvia and I will be hosting a 3-session outdoor meditation series in September. It will be held at the beautiful and serene Pomona Mills Park in Thornhill, Ontario.
