What to Expect
Guided meditation sessions begin with settling the body and breath, then move into the practice itself — which may involve focused attention, open awareness, visualisation, or inquiry. Sessions close with a gentle return to ordinary awareness. You'll sit or lie comfortably; no special posture is required. The facilitator guides the process; your only job is to show up and observe.
Frequently Asked Questions
- I can't stop my thoughts — is meditation right for me?
- Yes. Meditation isn't about stopping thoughts; it's about changing your relationship to them. A wandering mind is normal and expected.
- How quickly will I notice benefits?
- Many people notice shifts in mood and reactivity within a few sessions. Deeper changes typically emerge with consistent practice over weeks.
- Do I need to sit cross-legged?
- No. Comfort is more important than posture. A chair, cushion, or lying down all work fine.
