In the same way that a fast from food can provide rest and healing for the body, meditation is a fast for the mind. Mindfulness is a non-religious technique practiced by people from many different faiths. It provides valuable space in which withdraw from often demanding external interaction. Mindfulness Meditation is a perfect stress reduction technique.

Mindfulness meditation is a mind training technique, a practical and effective method of coming more into the present moment, and becoming more aware of our unhelpful habitual patterns. Then we have the power to choose more caring ways of behaving towards others and ourselves. Like quality food is a gift for your body, meditation is a gift to your mind.
Meditation is too hard!

Years ago, a client (let’s call her Gina) told me about a
dream she kept having over and over again.

In her dream, Gina goes to her favorite ice cream shop.
A confirmed chocoholic, she looks forward to treating herself to
her favorite flavor on a regular basis. But when she gets to the
shop, she realizes that all of the cartons of ice cream
are now vanilla
. Every single one.

She asks the clerk if there are any other flavors available.

“Actually, each of these flavors is different. This vanilla
has a subtle hint of almond, for example.”
