ONLINE Mindfulness, Meditation & Positive Living Course

meditation-mountain

 

I’m really looking forward to hosting this course. It’s definitely a time for being present, meditating, breathing and learning some new tools & tips to alleviate fear & anxiety and to cultivate more calm, peace, happiness & fun in our lives. And we can do this from the comfort of our own homes!

This six-week Mindfulness & Positive Living course will be a relaxing haven amongst all the current global craziness.

During each one-hour session, you will practice mindulness & meditate, do some breathwork & gentle movement/stretching, as well as learn tools & tips to alleviate anxiety and create calm in your life.

Find a quiet space (headphones could be helpful but not essential), a comfortable seat AND somewhere to lie down (also not essential but could be lovely – have a blanket handy in that case), as well as a pen & journal. Use some incense or essential oils and/or light a candle for optimal relaxation.

The course runs Wednesdays 8-9PM from 22nd April until 27th May 2020 via Zoom.

Rising

This morning, I rise at 5am. I do some breathing and get dressed in the half-light.

I shut the front door quietly and slip past blindfolded houses. I feel like I’m playing a trick on society, the only one awake.

You’re Making a Scene

Do you ever question why you feel bad? The majority of the time I feel bad is as a result of a thought I’ve just entertained.

Without the thought, I’d feel perfectly fine. I’d be in the moment.

My Song

I welcome the first day of summer by attending a yoga and music workshop with musician and yoga teacher Jack Harrison.

We lie down and begin with some breathing exercises. Jack strums his guitar, recites poetry and sings.

Little Camino

The past month has been weighed down with money worries, career anxiety, fear for the future and feelings of insecurity. This in turn has had an effect on my self-esteem; how I see myself and how I feel when I’m with others.

The main outcome of a much-needed business coaching session this week was that I need to love myself. And yesterday, I had another revelation.

To-Do

Today I attend a Life Coach for a much-needed, sort of dreaded business coaching session. We speak about timelines and deadlines. The Life Coach draws a “To-Do” box on the whiteboard. We also discuss ideas, fears and things that are weighing me down.

I confess that I’ve really been beating up on myself lately. I’ve been comparing myself unfavourably to others, calling myself names and believing that I’m “less than”. My mean streak is at a peak.

First Dates

A couple of friends recommended watching First Dates, a television series that films real first dates in a London restaurant. I’ve since watched the entire first season and it’s totally addictive.

As I binge on this hilarious reality TV show, I laugh a lot. But I also shed a few tears.

Open your Heart

A dear friend sent me a link to an interesting TED talk on love and relationships given by Mandy Len Catron. The theme of love and relationships had already been playing on my mind.

After watching the clip, I confessed to my friend that I long to share intimacy and affection with someone of the male variety. I quickly added that I’m just feeling impatient and that I should simply be present.
