Daily Meditation: Mission impossible?

Meditation works, there is no doubt.
You will get a grip on your thoughts, you will sleep better, respond better to people as you have a grip on your emotions, you will be more creative, take better care of yourself, etc etc etc.

And still... meditating on our own seems to be mission impossible after a couple of days or weeks.

Usually, it is not a lack of motivation, it's the fact that you have to do it on your own. 

If you have a teacher waiting for you and a supportive community of likeminded people, having the same objective, I can assure you that you will succeed.
30 days will fly by and you will have a personal meditation practice

Laser sharp

Why do we meditate?

I like to make Yoga postures, Yoga philosophy and Meditation as practical and accessible as possible. Start with the absolute basics (like how to sit in meditation) and built it up from there. 

One of the many benefits of meditation is that your mind becomes sharper, laser sharp.
From a sense of stability and full on relaxation (not spacing out, not chilling), we deepen our concentration and from there, the insight and sharpness will arise.

So before anything, we need to learn how to relax (without spacing out, without falling asleep). This is where our breath work comes in. Using the breath as a guide to relax body, and mind.

FAQ

  • I have never meditated before / I am a seasoned practitioner: is this challenge for me?

    Everyone can join this 30 Day Meditation Challenge. I explain every single step we take and guide you. If you are more experienced, your attention skills will be more developed and you will reach deeper states of concentration more quickly.

  • I'm not sure I can join the live session every day.

    Every session is recorded and stays up for 3 days so you can catch up at any time. Some people only join the recordings and do the challenge at a time more convenient for them, because of different time zones for example.

  • I'm not very spiritual, is this about Buddhism and stuff?

    As a teacher, I am influenced by Tibetan Buddhism and I share techniques that I learned from my teachers. I am not a Buddhist and to meditate, you don't need to be either :) Luckily meditation is moving away from being a spiritual thing and proper science and clinical evidence is coming out almost daily to show and prove the many benefits of meditation.

  • I'll wake up 10 minutes before or so and don't want to be all chatty, preferably not even say a word; is that ok?

    This is your time, please do whatever you would like to do in these 30 minutes. Be in your pyjamas or all dressed up, in bed, on a cushion, have your camera on or off, be chatty or not: really, it is all good.
