5 Myths About Starting a Meditation Practice

Meditation is one of the most powerful tools we have at our disposal for improving our physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

Despite its many benefits, many people still see meditation as something that is difficult, boring, or even pointless. In this blog post, I'm going to debunk some of the most common myths about meditation and show you why it’s one of the best things you can do for your health and happiness.

  • Myth #1: Meditation is only for spiritual people
Many people assume that meditation is only for those who are deeply spiritual or religious. However, this couldn’t be further from the truth. Meditation is a secular practice that can benefit anyone, regardless of their beliefs or background. You don’t need to be a monk or a guru to meditate – all you need is a willingness to try.

  • Myth #2: You need to sit in lotus position to meditate
While sitting in lotus position (cross-legged with your feet resting on your opposite thighs) is a common meditation posture, it’s not the only one. In fact, you can meditate in any position that is comfortable for you – whether that’s sitting in a chair, lying down, or even walking.

  • Myth #3: Meditation is only for people with lots of free time
Many people assume that meditation is a time-consuming practice that requires hours of daily practice. However, even just a few minutes of meditation each day can make a big difference in your life. You can meditate in as little as five or ten minutes – making it a perfect practice for even the busiest of people.

  • Myth #4: Meditation is boring
Some people assume that meditation is a dull and uneventful practice. However, meditation can be a deeply engaging and rewarding experience. When you meditate, you’re training your mind to be more focused, present, and aware – which can lead to greater clarity, creativity, and peace of mind.
​
  • Myth #5: Meditation is only for stress relief
While meditation is certainly an effective stress-reliever, it’s so much more than that. Regular meditation practice has been shown to improve sleep, boost immune function, lower blood pressure, and even improve cognitive function. It’s a holistic practice that can benefit your entire being – body, mind, and spirit.

In conclusion, meditation is a powerful practice that can transform your life in countless ways. Whether you’re looking to reduce stress, improve your health, or simply find greater peace and happiness in your daily life, meditation is a tool that can help you achieve your goals. So why not give it a try today? You might just be surprised at how much it can change your life for the better.

In this world, everything is energy.

We all exude an energy that the people around us respond to. Confident. Nervous. Excited. Guarded. The energy you put out determines the energy you get back. Therefore, one of the best ways to grow your business and move forward as a busines owner is by learning about your own energy. By learning how to work with your own energy and the 7 energy centers that run through your body, you can use what is already with you at all times - your own energetic flow.

Chakras are energy centers in the body that correspond to different physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of our being. There are seven main chakras, each with its unique qualities and characteristics. By understanding and working with these energy centers, you can align your mind, body, and spirit, and improve your overall well-being.

Here is a brief overview of each of the seven chakras and how they can help you as a business owner:
​
  • Root Chakra (Muladhara): The root chakra is located at the base of the spine and represents our foundation and stability. As a business owner, it's essential to have a strong foundation and feel grounded in your decisions. Working with the root chakra can help you feel more secure, confident, and stable in your business endeavors
 
  • Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana): The sacral chakra is located in the lower abdomen and represents our creativity and passion. As a business owner, it's crucial to be creative and innovative to stay ahead of the competition. Working with the sacral chakra can help you tap into your creativity and passion, and generate new ideas for your busines
 
  • Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura): The solar plexus chakra is located in the upper abdomen and represents our personal power and confidence. As a business owner, it's essential to have confidence in your abilities and decisions. Working with the solar plexus chakra can help you cultivate more self-confidence and assertiveness in your business dealings
 
  • Heart Chakra (Anahata): The heart chakra is located in the center of the chest and represents love, compassion, and connection. As a business owner, it's crucial to have a heart-centered approach and build strong relationships with your customers and team. Working with the heart chakra can help you cultivate more empathy, compassion, and emotional intelligence.
 
  • Throat Chakra (Vishuddha): The throat chakra is located in the throat and represents communication and self-expression. As a business owner, it's essential to communicate clearly and effectively with your team and customers. Working with the throat chakra can help you improve your communication skills, express your ideas more confidently, and build better relationships.
 
  • Third Eye Chakra (Ajna): The third eye chakra is located in the center of the forehead and represents intuition and insight. As a business owner, it's essential to have a clear vision and make decisions based on intuition and insight. Working with the third eye chakra can help you tap into your intuition, develop your psychic abilities, and gain more clarity and focus in your business.
​
  • Crown Chakra (Sahasrara): The crown chakra is located at the top of the head and represents our connection to the divine and higher consciousness. As a business owner, it's essential to have a sense of purpose and meaning beyond just making a profit. Working with the crown chakra can help you connect with your higher self, cultivate more spirituality in your business, and make decisions that align with your values.

In conclusion, working with your chakras can be a powerful tool for you, as a business owner, to improve not only your overall well-being, but the health and well-being of your business. By understanding and balancing each of the seven chakras, you can cultivate a more grounded, creative, confident, heart-centered, communicative, intuitive, and spiritually-aligned approach to your business.

This guided meditation will take you through a beautiful experience of tuning into and feeling into your own energy system (traditionally known as the 7 Chakras in Sanskrit). We will go through all 7 energy centers in the body: Root, sacral, solar plexus, heart, throat, third eye, and crown. You'll be guided through your entire energetic system so that you can tune into where you need healing, where you need balance, and to understand and feel more connected to your own self and your own energy.

The energy system as we know it has roots in the Chakra energy system that originated over 2,000 years ago. These systems of energy were created in Hinduism and Buddhism, and have been brough to the West by many different teachers. As a Western student of energy and healing, I prefer to use the term "energy center" instead of "chakra" (pronounced chuk-ruh). I explain more about my perspective and how it relates to and differs from more traditional teachings in my previous episode. Thank you so much!

This guided meditation is my free gift to you. It is part of a deeply healing, 7 week experience "Spring Clean Your Energy Centers." If you would like to learn more about the program click the button below!

Your energy system, traditionally called the "Chakra System" in Hinduism, is mainly comprised of 7 energetic centers - the Root, Sacral, Solar Plexus, Heart, Throat, Third Eye, and Crown. These energy centers are a reflection of your relationship to the infinite energy of the Universe. When we heal our energy centers, we unblock our own infinite, Divine energy.

In this episode, I'm going to cover this energy system from my own personal perspective. Although my perspective is rooted in Western teachings and traditions, it is built upon the ancient teachings of Hinduism and Buddhism. I am grateful to these traditions for bringing the foundations of energetic teachings to me, and I now share them from my perspective.

This perspective includes neurology, the nervous system, and more, and so because this is not a traditional teaching, I use the term "energy center" instead of "chakra" (pronounced chuk-ruh) throughout the episode.

My explanation is going to go deep into thoughts, energy, and your own self, help you to have a very clear and grounded understanding of something that is actually quite profound and mystical.

This is part 1 of 2 introducing you to the fascinating dynamics of your own energy system. In my next episode, I will go deeper into the meaning and association of each of these energy centers (or chakras, as they are traditionally called).
