30 min ' bliss out ' in every yoga class
Every general yoga class begins with 30 mins of pranayama (intentional breathing), and meditation...Please find class times on 'welcome' page .
We lay on comfy white woolen carpet , wrapped in indian wool rugs, then we practice SHUNYATA....NO-THING-NESS..... WE surrender into total bliss ...We listen to gorgeous hindu or multi faith prayer, or ancient majikal solfeggio frequencie, with the intent to raise our vibration from one of fear and fatigue to one of love n gratitude.....
During the next 45 mins of the class we sustain the divinely delicate frequencie whist doing gentle HATHA YOGA therapy. Ideal for curious,tired, old & injured.

SERIOUS DAILY PRACTICE
At least 20 -60 mins a day is ideal. Consistancy is a must. Alot of people like to put on a gentle sounding timer / bell on to let them know its time to stop... this is a good idea as when we go deep , we loose sense of time...
I consider 20 mins a day enough to start with. I allow myslf the freedom to stop at any time. I'm not attatched to the out come, this attitude is part of my yoga practice. Being unconcerned with the outcome is one of the 8 limbs of yoga. It prevents expectation and dissapoinment.
Your meditation practice should be easy and be comfortably intergrated into your life. There's no point in Sitting ( the term we use when we meditate regardless of laying or sitting, altho technically laying is called Shavasana.), when yr meditating causes you or your family stress.
When you prepare to Meditate there are
a few non negotiable rules :
1/ Get really comfy.Try to really nurture yourself. Put a blanket over your self,support yr head.You can sit up against a wall with pillows , or sit in a comfy chair, or lay on your bed if you wish.
Some yogi's may argue that you must sit in lotus (legs crossed) with no support. It's true , we go deeper when our spine is up right, but in my yoga school 80 % of my students have tired or injured bodies, thus sitting would cause pain. This causes the stress hormone 'cortisol' to rapidly move throughout the body. Cotisol, stress hormone IS THE OPPOSITE TO destressing.....so when u try to meditate...dont take it too seriously. chill...
2/No muscles can be switched on .
complete surrender is essential...Be patient. If you lay comfortably and just listen and breath your body will let go..be patient.
3/Breath via the nostrils.This really important. If you cant that's fine. A herbalist can help you with your sinuses.
If you are a mouth breather and yr sinuses are ok ,you need to learn to close yr mouth, relax yr jaw and breath through yr nose.
4/Concentrate.
Other words for concentration are
AWARENESS , BEING PRESENT or MINDFULLNESS
It takes practice.
NOW YOUR ARE READY TO START.
Put on a CD .
Crystal bowls or DNA altering vibrational healing, or simply something pretty . There are links to various types of meditation music on this page and on welcome page .
get comfy, close your eyes. You may like to where an eye bag. it may help you relax.
Now breath in for 2 counts and breath out for 2 counts...let the breath be yr main focus .
Depending on the length of the CD you may be left in silence. This is ideal.I beleive a ten minute preparation with sound/cd is enough time for us to let go . When silence comes we go very very deep.
In my opinion there's no bad meditation.If you only reached still ness for 5 mins in a one hr sit, it was 5 mins of perfection, plus your body had a good rest.Always look for the silver lining. The cup is half full, not half empty.
To re-train our brain to be positive takes practice . With the help of Meditation it can become a way of life.
For more infomation on breathing check the Pranayama page for complete brathing unstructions, if you havent allready done the meditation at the top of this page...its a good practice meditation.

SELFEGGIO SOUND FREQUENCY
Selfeggio frequency were used in Ancient Gregorian Chants, such as the great hymn to St. John the Baptist, along with others that church authorities say were lost centuries ago. The chants and their special tones were believed to impart tremendous spiritual blessings when sung in harmony during religious masses. These powerful frequencies were rediscovered by Dr. Joseph Puleo as described in the book Healing Codes for the Biological Apocalypse by Dr. Leonard Horowitz. I give honor to both of these gentleman for the part they’ve played in helping return these lost frequencies back to humanity.

Heal yr life with LOVING thoughts & HAPPY memories.
Recent studies show that positive emotion/thought such as love, joy, greatfulness and etc. effects human
DNA by making the strands longer and more perceptive (meaning uncoding the hidden talents such as ESP, precognition, clairvoyance and others), when negative emotion such as fear, anger, despair and etc. makes DNA shrink, therefore limiting human perception a great deal. One has to establish an ongoing positive thought in order for these changes to occur.
Why not start NOW.
First...lets get rid of the term meditate... as it has great expectation attatched to it. Instead,
I'll ask, have you breathed with awareness today....have you been mindful?
You dont need any experience just the ability to listen and breath. Thats all I want you to do...BREATH....FEEL...LISTEN.....
.... Please turn on your speakers ,not too loud... check your posture, are you sitting up straight?
Place both feet on the floor and lengthen yr spine...get comfy. Even though yr spine should be straight try to relax your lower belly...breath into your tummy, as though you are trying to fill a deflated balloon in yr belly.
Now breath in for 2 counts then out for 2 counts... longer if possible, via your nostrils if possible ,keep lengthening yr spine gently, concentrate only on yr breathing and the sound of the ocean. Listen, really listen to the ocean . look at the picture of the sparkling ocean. Can you remember a time when you were at the beach and you were having a really great time....? if so, lock in that memeory...or, just look at the image of the ocean. 'PERFECTION'! keep looking at it. It sparkles like a million diamonds, its so beautiful isn't it.......
Interestingly your brain doesn't know the difference between now and a memory . Yes, amazing ....dont trust me...google it... so, if you imagine you are at your favorite beach .....or on your favorite holiday, your bodies physiology will respond accordingly, with joyful, happy hormones.
Allow the image of the ocean to fill yr heart with feelings of amazement and bliss...acknowledging how truely wanderful this gorgeous planet is..... Look at it and listen until your eyes become tired.....then breath in for 2 or 3 counts then out for 2 or 3 counts.......before long each breath will naturally grow longer....ENJOY.
CONGRATULATIONS.....You are practicing Pranayama. one of the oldest and simplest breathing techniques on the planet...pranayam..or easy breath ...MUST BE EASY.....When we practice PRANAYAM you are moving Chi / prana / Life force through your body . Your breath has become the carrier of life force /chi. Your blood gasses will gently balance your physiology will begin to feel a little odd.
You may feel tingly, or weightless. You are 'waking up'. sometimes after 5 mins of pranayama I feel
like i've 'COME HOME'...... the oddest and most blissful exprience , which often brings me to tears!.... This form of meditation is an ancient gift from the yogi's of India...possibly from 7 thousand yrs ago......Lets not take it for granted.....
Interestingly Meditation was the ancient yogi's main goal...hatha ( physical ) yoga was developed so that the yogi's could meditate for long periods...
So hatha yoga is simply designed to prepare the body for absolute stillness!!
Another way to experience no thought
remember...meditation is simply the absence of ordinary thought....
so just listen and enjoy...and dont take it too seriously....
every meditator has thoughts as you are human....allow them to exist in the periphery of your consciousness.... let them float on by...... See if you can go without engaging in ordinary thoughts for just a few minutes at a time....
I beleive that by minimising expectation in our meditation practice , we then, come to exist in an environmnet of success .
This leads to all kinds of chemical changes in the brain, has the ability to make you litterally crave meditation , stillness.
scroll down this page for links to various types of meditation .
To be enjoyed whilst you work.... or sitting or laying....Enjoy. :)
Remember.... NO EXPECTATIONS = SUCCESS
BETA - ALPHA - THETA BRAIN WAVES
The four types of brain waves in more detail
BETA waves (15-30 oscillations (or waves) per second (Hz)). This is the brain rhythm in the normal wakeful state associated with thinking, conscious problem solving and active attention directed towards the outer world. You are most likely in the "beta state" while you are reading this.
ALPHA waves (9-14 Hz). When you are truly relaxed, your brain activity slows from the rapid patterns of beta into the more gentle waves of alpha. Fresh creative energy begins to flow, fears vanish and you experience a liberating sense of peace and well-being. The "alpha state" is where meditation starts and you begin to access the wealth of creativity that lies just below our conscious awareness. It is the gateway that leads into deeper states of consciousness.
THETA waves (4-8 Hz). Going deeper into relaxation and meditation, you enter the "theta state" where brain activity slows almost to the point of sleep. Theta brings forward heightened receptivity, flashes of dreamlike imagery, inspiration, and, sometimes, your long-forgotten memories. It can also give you a sensation of "floating".
Theta is one of the more elusive and extraordinary realms we can explore. It is also known as the twilight state which we normally only experience fleetingly as we rise up out of the depths of delta upon waking, or drifting off to sleep. In theta, we are in a waking dream, and we are receptive to information beyond our normal conscious awareness. Some people believe that Theta meditation awakens intuition and other extrasensory perception skills.
Delta waves (1-3 Hz). This slowest of brainwave activity is found during deep, dreamless sleep. It is also sometimes found in very experienced meditators.
It is during Theta that you will do most of your healing. Whilst in theta we access inspiration and creativity that otherwise are blocked by stress from busy lives....
Thus Theata will not only relax and rejuvinate you physiologically, but it will inspire you,it will allow you to problem solve.
It will help you create the change you want.
