What is Meditation?
Meditation is a discipline used to understand and experience pure knowledge. The benefits of meditation include inner calm, peace and confidence which are applied to daily life.
Meditation has found a place within Western lifestyles through the integration of Eastern and Western philosophies. Meditating is no longer limited to sitting cross legged, making ohm sounds with incense burning. While there are several types of seated meditation, they can basically be categorized into one of two types - relaxation meditation and conscious meditation.
Relaxation meditation generally uses guided imagery to take you away from your body, your stress, worries, pain, etc. Relaxation meditation is often used for patients seeking temporary relief from high levels of pain. While many people like the idea of using this meditation to escape from their troubles, in truth, they will return to the stress, worries, and pain manifesting in the physical, mental and emotional bodies. This type of meditation offers temporary relief.
Conscious meditation takes you into your body, enabling you to experience your inner/outer self with present moment awareness. Conscious meditation directs your attention in such a way that you witness and transcend the ever present thoughts flowing through your mind, while transforming your thoughts, emotions and physical realities.
While most people do not like the idea of experiencing discomfort they soon realize their power lies in transforming and transcending the way things influence them through consciousness. This type of meditation creates present moment awareness, Veracis Meditation™.
What type of Meditation does Veracis Wellness offer?
Veracis Meditation™ is a conscious meditation, integrating the benefits of relaxation. Classes are an integration of Eastern and Western, non-religious, energy based philosophies designed to develop your awareness as Spirit.
When regularly practicing Veracis Meditation™ you identify and clear away distracting thoughts and emotions using powerful tools learned. Meditation classes are offered in five levels throughout the year, each building on the previous level.
Level I,Spirit Awareness Meditation, is the foundation class, teaching you a structured format to focus inwards with truth, trust and amusement, and to access abilities to create the life you want for yourself.
Meditation Levels II-V build on creating compassion through life lessons in relation to Spirit, mind and body.
Why Meditate?
Do you want to relax?
Do you want to be more focused, in control?
Do you want to enjoy life and people?
Do you want to look and feel younger?
The stillness, peace of mind, contentment and happiness you seek is accessed from within, through your core essence, your spirit. Your spirit defines your core essence, intention and integrity. The most effective way to get in touch with your spirit is through meditating.
Learning and practicing a disciplined meditation accelerates your personal and spiritual growth. Typically people are drawn to meditation classes in the same way they would learn in any one or two hour weekly class. They come to class once a week to learn, knowing the series ends.
What people discover is that Veracis Meditation™ is not confined to a set time, but rather it becomes a way of being.
Benefits
Discover more about yourself
Imagine yourself viewing a movie screen with centered awareness. Who you are as spirit, (also known as the witness), observes the thoughts, sensations and emotions as separate from the core self.
The current physical discomfort, frustration, or confusion does not define ‘you as spirit’, and you have the power to change your reality. With continued practice you discover there is something bigger inside you, your core essence, your spirit. From here you gain insights and understanding to who you are, what you need and what you want.
The more in touch you are with your inner self, your spirit, the more clarity and power you have in creating ease and wellness in your life. True wellness begins in nurturing your spirit first. Spirit nurtures truth, truth creates freedom.
