A introduction to the art of meditation, this class provides the opportunity to practice meditation in a supportive setting with practical instruction, guidelines and advice for anyone wishing to bring meditation into their life. Kim will introduce the importance of Breathing, the Cultivation of Loving Kindness, Body awareness, posture, ways to work with distractions, and other topics arising from these experiences.

Ongoing, chronic stress can have adverse effects such as increased blood pressure and heart rate, irritability, depression, insomnia, addictive behaviour, forgetfulness, restlessness, and anxiety. Stress can also lower our resistance, making us more vulnerable to illness and disease.

Numerous studies have shown that meditation can help people feel better, sleep better, increase ability to cope with stressful situations, improve self-esteem and renew enthusiasm for life, love and work.

 

Courses

Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese word meaning cosmic or universal life-force. Healing means restoring harmony to mind, body and spirit. By using gentle touch, the energy in your body will be balanced, thereby creating healing.

Reiki is the name given to a system of natural healing which evolved from the experience and dedication of Dr Mikao Usui, a professor of theology who lived in the 19th century. Today Reiki continues to be taught by Reiki Masters who have been trained in the traditions passed down from master to student.

There is no belief system attached to Reiki so anyone can receive or learn to give a Reiki treatment. The only prerequisite is the desire to be healed, and for physical, mental, spiritual and emotional wellbeing.

A Reiki treatment can be given anywhere without the need to remove clothing, as Reiki is said to pass through anything, maybe even plaster casts.

To receive treatment the recipient simply lies on a couch and relaxes. If unable to lie down, the treatment can be given in a sitting position. The main thing is for the recipient to be as comfortable as possible.

Reiki flows to the areas of need, soothing pain and supporting the body's natural ability to heal itself.  It is possible to heal at any level of being: physical, mental, emotional or spiritual.
Reiki natural healing may be used to energise you when you feel drained and calm you when you feel afraid.
