Join Ian for a Sitting Meditation Workshop! Sunday, June 1st from 2 – 3:30 pm
Meditation works like observer phenomenon in quantum mechanics in which the act of observing the process, changes it. If you know you are being watched, your behavior changes. Apparently this is true for people, brains, and particles! In this case, meditation allows us to observe how our mind functions in relation to the world and subsequently reprogram our habitual reactivity. Teaching the mind to settle (or focus) on one object improves our ability to choose in life.
Meditation helps calm the nervous system, improve emotional awareness and regulation, and increase neuroplasticity. Neuroplasticity is the extraordinary ability of the brain to adapt, change, and rewire itself in response to activities or experiences that stimulate it. Meditation can actually strengthen existing neural pathways, create new ones, or weaken existing ones that are no longer benefitting you.
Ian will cover the underlying concepts of how and why meditation is so impactful along with:
- Prepping the body for stretching & meditation posture
- Methods of practice &
- Practical applications
This workshop is for anyone (of any age) looking for tools to ease anxiety, calm their nervous system, improve emotional awareness & regulation, increase neuroplasticity, or just wanting to live a clearer, more intentional life. Meditation is one of myriad instruments that can guide you throughout a lifelong journey of growth and healing.
As always, please call the office if you have additional questions (614) 725-2488.
