How effective is meditation, really?

If you want to relieve stress, gain focus, be more present with your loved ones, or simply go through life with a greater sense of mindfulness and ease, then meditation is one of the most effective tools available to you.
But, the true benefits of meditation and mindfulness require more than simply sitting with your eyes closed and listening to the latest meditation app.

During this workshop, you will learn traditional meditation practices, viewed through a modern lens that has helped to scientifically validate centuries old traditions and claims.

The benefits of a meditation and mindfulness practice can be profound, and the path to attaining them can actually be quite simple.

You will learn straight-forward, actionable steps to help you start realizing the benefits of meditation and mindfulness, immediately.

Most importantly, you’ll learn practical ways to create a consistent practice and take your mindfulness off the cushion and into your day-to-day life, where it can truly transform your life.

About Your Teacher - Jason Billows

I was introduced to meditation at the age of 12 by a grade school teacher while preparing for a school play. That experience planted a seed that has since grown into a decades-long exploration of numerous meditation styles and techniques.

When I first began to practice it was with curiosity, then over time I practiced with dedication, and now I practice with an increasing sense of ease and playfulness.

I no longer measure my practice by how few thoughts I have during my meditation, but instead I practice based on my intuition, listening to my body and breath for guidance to create space, balance, and mindfulness in my life.

Our second chakra, called Svadhisthana means “seat of life” and is located in the lower belly and inner pelvis. It is responsible for our creativity, sexuality, pleasure and our ability to embrace change. This translates to taking risks creatively, abandoning fear of failure and enjoying guilt-
free pleasure.

Join Jen Pakuts and Natasha Moine for this two hour yoga class designed to awaken your creativity chakra. Play is a wonderful way to begin this opening. Have you ever watched a child play? You have infinite creative energy around you -- during our time together let’s tap into that
creative energy and begin to cultivate changes into your everyday life.

Expect a movement segment of class followed by a restorative portion, lots of hands-on-assists, pranayama, meditation and a long savasana.
