A little about who I am, my history and how and when I began my meditation journey.
So what are we speaking about when we mention the word "meditation?" I give you the Wikipedia's version and my version.
You're about to delve deeper into meditation. But why do it in the first place? What are the benefits I may expect from doing my meditation practice each day? Here I list the top 10 benefits of meditation.
Let everything become a meditation for you. From sitting, to standing in line, washing up to driving your car... being present in the moment is the aim. Being mindful. Use meditation as an every day tool for all actions - so your life becomes a walking, talking meditation.
When should I do meditation? How long for? Here I answer these questions for you. There are no hard and fast rules, however, a daily commitment is the way to go. Allow your life to be a meditation itself. Be mindful. Be present.

A meditation that has literally helped hundreds of thousands of people on YouTube - I thought I need to include this here, as it may just help you. Indeed, when I am stuck in life, I use this one myself!
This course will show you a way to peace of mind, in an often chaotic world... The 30 day meditation bootcamp is a way of life, rather than a course to complete - and then forget about.
In this 30 day course, Jason Stephenson (Best Selling Co-Author with Jack Canfield's "Success Mastery" book 2017), will cover Mindfulness meditation... a practice where you can begin to master your own life on a daily basis through the art of being 100% present in each and every moment. No experience in meditation is needed!
It is a practical course where you will be able to commit time for meditation each day for the next 30 days (most days approximately 30 minutes per day is enough) - and hopefully beyond. If you skip a day, it's OK. You have a lifetime access to this course!
Aspects of this course will include practicing being present and learning to meditate mindfully whilst walking, standing, waiting, eating, sitting and more. It's all about milking each moment out of your life.
The course also includes guided meditations where you can begin to learn to visualize during meditation and to connect to your breathing. There will even be a 2 day "silent retreat" A digital detox if you will.
If you are tired of always living a stressed out life and barely existing, then this course is for you.
Begin to master your life.. You already have the tools you need. They are already within you. I will be there to see that along the way, you will flourish and see and connect to another beautiful, more peaceful centered side of yourself that you may have not seen for a long while.
Let us begin.
