You’ve read about it in articles, you’ve heard about it in podcasts, and you’ve seen it talked about on TV. You’ve been told that regular meditation will help you become calmer, less stressed, more focused, less reactive and happier.
You want the benefits of meditation, but you’re sceptical. Maybe you’re worried that meditation won’t work because your mind is busier than most, perhaps you think meditation will make you lose your edge, or you’re aware that there’s a lot of fluff in the industry and you’re worried about wasting your time on something that doesn’t produce results.
With all the noise out there, where should you begin? At Wild Mind Meditation we make it easy for you.
The ancient practice of Mindfulness Meditation has stood the test of time. The techniques have been researched and developed for thousands of years. Today, with over three decades of published, scientific research behind it, ancient wisdom is finally intersecting with modern science, and it is clear what works and what doesn’t.
At Wild Mind Meditation we ensure that everything we teach, every technique we use, every course, every workshop and every class, is backed by science. Until chakras and crystals have been proven using the scientific method, we won’t be referring to them in any of our classes. The research shows that the vast majority of people who implement our techniques report a more exceptional ability to cope with both short- and long-term stressful situations.
Studies have shown that in only a few weeks, those who have completed our method of Mindfulness training have higher levels of emotional intelligence, improved relationships, and reduced levels of stress. They discover a natural state of mind in which they are focused, present and aware. They have more sustained attention, greater emotional regulation and an increased ability to adopt different perspectives.
By learning to participate in the self-management of their health and well-being, participants on our courses report they are better able to manage their anger, anxiety, depression, fear, and stress both at home and in the workplace. Participants have stated that they feel less critical and have less judgement toward themselves, and subsequently of others.
Many students of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) report a decrease in the frequency and length of medical visits to hospitals and other health-care providers. The MBSR research also confirms a significant reduction in the use of prescription and non-prescription medications among course participants.
Wild Mind Meditation courses and workshops challenge participants to practice present moment awareness, deep relaxation, and mindful movement. Through the use of these techniques, a person learns to discover and observe his or her reactions to life’s stressors and to choose how to respond. With practice, you can apply these skills to everyday situations and connect more fully with yourself, your loved ones, and the life you’re living.
Learn how to take better care of yourself through the interplay of mind and body, and mobilise your own inner resources for coping, growing and healing. In our courses and workshops, you will learn to access and cultivate your natural capacity to actively engage in caring for yourself and find greater balance, ease, and peace of mind.
