In the midst of our busy lives, it's easy to lose touch with ourselves. But when was the last time you paused to truly reconnect and sense how you're feeling? In my latest webinar, "Healing from within: Meditation for Mental Health", I delved into the different meditation approaches, focusing particularly on natural meditation. We discuss how this method has been instrumental in my personal healing journey and it’s ability to heal physical & mental afflictions, illness and pain. I went deeper into the benefits of natural meditation and how simple it is to heal from within, which involves listening to your body, learning how to feel and grounding yourself in your senses. I then guided the participants through a 5 minute deep meditation, allowing them to experience for themselves the power of natural meditation. This meditation is what I have included below. Feel free to take 5 minutes, so you too can come back to the physical sensations in your body and simply just feel. If you’re interested in watching the full webinar 👇🏼 https://lnkd.in/dAVkRW7H But first, take a moment for yourself. Tune in to this 5-minute guided meditation and reconnect with yourself.

One meditation technique changed Prashant Pitti's life! In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to overlook the importance of mental health. That's why Prashant decided to prioritize his well-being and take a transformative journey. 🏔️ For 30 days, he lived in a Himalayan monastery, surrounded by 300 monks. 🧘♂️ During this time, he immersed himself in the practice of eight different types of meditation. 💭 Through these practices, he experienced the profound impact of mindfulness on his life. One meditation technique allowed him to maintain deep meditation for hours, unlocking new levels of spiritual growth. 🌿 Reflecting on his 5-6 year journey, he's transitioned from viewing life as a mere blip to understanding that each action is guided by a higher purpose. 🙏 Embracing this mindset has empowered him to lead a purpose-driven life, fueled by the belief that every endeavor is a manifestation of divine will. Let's prioritize mental well-being and unlock the power of mindfulness. #Mindfulness

THE ESSENCE MEDITATION Recently I have had women and men reaching out and asking whether I run meditation sessions. Whenever I hear this, I wonder " What mental chatter are you tired of shutting off? What noise has become too much for you?" I ask and the answer is "Peace of Mind". In many cases, the need to ease from sadness, inner conflicts, grief 😔 and all emotions that people tend to label as low levels. Peace, Calmness, Joy, Happiness are experiences and they are not the ESSENCE of meditation. The ESSENCE, the HEART of MEDITATION is AWARENESS. When we sit or walk or lie down or move into our meditation process, we will become aware of our rising thoughts, our emotions, the stories and much more. Attempting to quieten the mind and believing that the mind should stop is an unresourceful frame to have, it's similar to wanting to be alive without our breaths. The essence of mediation is to stay with the AWARENESS of one's experiences and distinguish between one self and the experiences. What does one do with one's awareness? We stay with the AWARENESS. The more we deepen our stay with our AWARENESS, we begin to reach a point of ACCEPTANCE, INCLUSION, AGREEING TO OUR EXPERIENCES and then our GRIP on what we want to have as EXCLUSIVE EXPERIENCES begin to dissolve. We move to a space of AWARENESS that we can direct our inner powers. I have a body but I am not my body I have emotions but I am not my emotions I have desires but they are not me. I have an intellect but I am not my intellectual. At times, before we are able to reach this point of meeting our AWARENESS, we may need support to do a quality of cognitive works that helps us to take ownership of our inner world and inner game. If you are struggling with your mental clutter, hang in right now, stay with the AWARENESS.. Reach out for any support that you may need.
