  • The Meditation of No Meditation for Sound
    The Meditation of No Meditation is partly a meditation and partly an experience of Mindfulness. It is a window into a present moment that isn’t crowded with repetitive thoughts, memories, anxieties, tasks, priorities, worries and all the other baggage of the 21st century.
    Mindfulness is “The undistracted awareness of the experience of the present moment.” - My definition.
    The attributes of the Meditation of No Meditation are:
    - It is entirely frictionless for most new meditation students.
    - It can be done almost anywhere and at any time.
    The Meditation of No Meditation is a simple listening exercise that has elements of meditation in it, along with elements of mindfulness.
    The Meditation of No Meditation isn’t a traditional mindfulness meditation and it won’t build mindfulness like the key mindfulness meditation practices such as 'following the breath' do, but if we follow the Way of No Meditation, practicing it the way I will explain, will help you to build a regular practice! Once you have a regular practice, adding to it becomes possible for even the busiest people. This is a science backed habit formation technique known as Habit Stacking. Once we have one good habit in place, we can amend it or add other new habits to it.

  • The Self-Compassion Meditation
    We all have a collection of memories of our difficult past experiences. These can stay with us for a lifetime. Sometimes these experiences can build up and become a very real burden that is unhelpful for our happiness. There are a number of ways that students of meditation can release their emotional baggage. Compassion, gratitude and self-compassion are key practices that I teach regularly. At the heart of these practices is the self-compassion meditation which consists of three statements.
    May I be well
    May I be happy
    May I find peace of mind
    Be aware that this is not a magic practice designed to make you feel great about yourself and the rest of the world. It is a gentle mindfulness technique that helps to balance the negative self-talk and criticism from self and others that is part of our lives. Also be aware that for some, this may bring uncomfortable emotions into your experience. If that is the case, do this when you are feeling powerful. If it feels overwhelming, stop and either come back to it at some future point or find another gratitude practice that works for you.

  • The Counting the Breaths Meditation

    Counting the breaths is an ancient mindfulness meditation technique.

    It's a practice where we count each breath using the inner voice.
    The way I teach it is to count each in and out breath. This engages the mind in an activity that helps to calm the mind.
    It is the single mindfulness meditation practice that is most helpful for most students.

  • The Following the Breath Meditation
    A guided version of the following the breath meditation.The following the breath meditation teaches us two things:
    We have an alternative to being ruled by random thoughts.
    There is a neutral place, the breath in the present moment, where we can find a refuge from the stresses of everyday life.
    We learn all of this in the best and simplest way. Gentle repetition trains our mind to return to the present moment from wherever it has taken us.
