Why make a meditation about non-attachment? The Zen concept of non-attachment can be a useful one, especially in a world when it’s easy to feel overly attached to things (your possessions, your beauty, your identity, your phone…) Non-attachment doesn’t mean not caring about things, or giving everything up to become a monk up on a hill, alone. Non-attachment is more about freeing yourself from the stories you tell yourself, the illusions in your life, to make space for all the real stuff.

Your chakras, or seven main energy centres, are located in a straight line along your spine (for the most part) beginning at the base of your spine with the root chakra and ending at the top of your head with the crown chakra. These energy centres are aligned with the spinal plexus, the terminals along the spine that allow for communication between your central nervous system and your autonomic nervous system.

The first hour (or 10 minutes!) of your day might just be the most important one. It sets the tone for the entire day ahead. If you’ve ever “woken up on the wrong side of the bed” and just not been able to shake that feeling all day, you know what I’m talking about.

This short guided meditation puts you in touch with your five physical senses to help you relax deeply. I love doing this type of meditation anytime I feel like I can't shut my brain off- it's a great way to get out of the incessant chatter of the mind and into the body.

With everything that’s been going on in the world over the years and months, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, anxious, and even like you want to withdraw from the world. But the truth is, what the world needs most right now is for people to come forward, bring their light, and access their power to make change in their little corner of the world.

When you’re feeling a little on edge and you’re craving some of those amazing benefits that Mother Earth has to offer, but you’re not able to get outside, a grounding visualization meditation can do the trick. When I’m feeling anxious or too much in my head, I love to sit down for a few minutes in silence and imagine I am sitting with my back against a giant tree, or that my feet are grounded deep in warm sand or soft grass.

Here are some energy medicine exercises to help you strengthen your aura and why it’s important.

Like life sometimes can, this post is going to get worse before it gets better. But hang on because I promise I’m going to give you some pretty simple, yet very tangible, ways to get your life back on track.

“Breathing properly” seems like a silly concept. You can’t teach your heart to beat properly, or your brain to think properly, so how can your lungs be any different?The reality is that the vast majority of us have forgotten how to breath by the time we’re young adults. When we were babies, we knew how to do it naturally – but these days, many of us are so caught up in stress, overwhelm, and anxiety all the time, that breathing becomes too shallow, too short, and stunted.

Sound baths are so much more than soothing music—the frequencies of the bowls actually alter your brain waves, bringing your brain from a typical waking-state level of consciousness (beta), to a state of relaxed consciousness (theta), all the way down to the delta state, where internal healing is able to occur!

Did you know researchers have been studying the health benefits of the flower for decades? Today, I want to share with you three research-backed benefits of lavender (you might as well add lavender oil to your shopping list right now!)

Meal prep = convenience! Having some dinner and lunch staples already prepped makes cooking easy breezy. It’s also a great tool to stay intentional about what you’re eating and aligned to your specific needs and goals.
