Vedic Meditation

The relationship between stress and illness is complex because everyone responds to stress differently.​​​​​​​​ Among the factors that influence the susceptibility to stress are genetic vulnerability, coping style, type of personality and social support. And not all stress has a negative effect. Stress is what gets us motivated to get out of bed of a morning and go to work because we don’t want to lose our job!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​But in this extremely busy western world where we don’t give ourselves any downtime, stress is a massive cause of mental issues and physical disease.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Studies have shown that short-term stress can boost the immune system, but chronic stress has a significant negative effect on the immune system that ultimately leads to disease.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​How can we help ourselves? MEDITATION.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Numerous studies have shown that meditation is an effective stress-management tool, which has been scientifically proven to help alleviate stress when practiced as a daily activity.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Vedic meditation is a simple, natural and highly beneficial practice that anyone can learn.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Vedic meditation causes the mind to naturally de-excite by using a mantra (sound) and an effortless mental technique. As the mind settles down, the body follows and you experience a deep state of rest. This deep rest revitalises and rejuvenates the whole body.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Reach out to me if you would like to find out more.
