Discover the present moment

Awakening is our next public health revolution. The science of meditation shows that we can be happier, less angry and stressed, more awake and more compassionate to oneself and others by meditating. But everyone doesn’t know about this fact yet. My vision is to help people all over the world discover meditation so we can live a more authentic and compassionate life. If we’re not present, we’re missing our own life. What can be more important than that?

Here’s some of the benefits Of meditation

Awareness

Research has showed that we’re lost in thought 47 percent of our time. Meditation helps us experience the now and find that which is always and already awake. To get lost and begin again is not a mistake, it’s part of the practice.

Creativity

We don’t do an idea, we get an idea. Most often this happens when we disconnect from our compulsive thinking, it might be in the shower or on a run. Meditation can help us discover the open space between our thoughts where ideas and our creativity arises.

focus

Concentration is a foundation in meditation. Try to focus on an object for a couple of minutes. The expression "monkey mind" where the mind jumps forward and back is striking metaphor. Meditation helps us to focus on what’s most important in any given moment.

Wellbeing

Some say that meditation have made them 10 percent happier, others say it has changed their life. Meditation helps us observe our thought and feelings with equanimity. To allow what already is creates inner peace. To experience the present moment rather than being lost in thought is happiness.

Reduced stress

Stress is probably our biggest public health problem. Stress today is almost always related to our thoughts. Meditation is not a relaxing exercise, but it helps us to observe our minds and learn to see which thoughts are useful and which one we can let go of. To understand the difference helps us relax.

Compassion

Research has shown that meditation can increase our compassion for ourselves an and others. We can learn to see how often our thoughts are negative and stop believing the stories. Meditation teaches us to not judge ourselves, which is the foundation for not judging others.

“Presence is a beautiful gift we can give to each other. Perhaps the most beautiful of them all. ”
