Meditation and Mindfulness Workshops
Soul Mind Body Medicine
“If we connect to the stillness within, we move beyond our active minds and emotions and discover great depths of lasting peace, contentment and serenity” (Eckhart Tolle)
Meditation is a state of thoughtless awareness, where everyday activity of the mind ceases, but one remains peaceful and aware. 'COCOON' supports the individual to achieve this sense of meditative stillness through guided visualisations, chakra balancing, chanting sounds, gentle trance work, movement and meditation.
The aim of these workshops is to create a sacred, dynamic and safe space to attain a quiet stillness that enables you to feel connected to the universe and yourself and discover an inner harmony, strength and overall sense of peace that silences your mind and keeps you grounded in the moment.
Workshops Commence early Feb 2012
