Lisa is credentialed as a Meditation Instructor through the Chopra Center
Meditation is a tool for rediscovering the body's own inner intelligence. Practiced for thousands of years, it's not about forcing the mind to be quiet; it's about finding the silence that's already there, and making it a part of your life.
Silence is the birthplace of happiness, creativity, and infinate possibility. From this field of pure potentiality come bursts of inspiration, our most intuitive thoughts, and our deepest sense of connection to the Universe. Practicing meditation on a regular basis allows us to weave silence and stillness into mind and body to create a life of greater compassion.
Meditation is known as a compass in the journey to the center of Being, to emotional freedom, and to the reawakening of our unconditioned self.
Primordial Sound Meditation
Originating from the ancient wisdom of India, Primordial Sound Meditation is one useful technique that Lisa teaches to assist students in integrating a meditation practice into a daily routine. Primordial sounds - the basic, most essential sounds of nature - are used to disconnect us from the activity of life. These individually selected sounds, known as mantras, are based on the vibration created by the intake and exhalation of breath, and the vibration the universe was making at the moment of your birth.
Once your Primordial Sound mantra has been determined, you will be taught how to use it on a daily basis to reawaken balance, tranquility, and compassion within.
Nowadays, doctors are increasignly citing stress as a major contributing factor to most illnesses. Even though meditation should not be considered a cure by itself, research has shown it to be beneficial for a wide range of health problems. As stress is greatly eliminated though meditation, our minds and bodies begin to function with maximum effectivelness, creating health, vitality and happiness.
The Primordial Sound Meditation Course
Session One will be an introduction to the basic principles of meditation, it's history, and the importance of your mantra.
In Session two, you will receive your personal mantra and learn how to use it. You will try meditation for the first time using your Primordial Sound.
In Session Three, you will learn the practical aspects of meditation, will share your experiences, receive answers to any questions, and will meditate with the group and with Lisa.
Session four will feature a lecture about the higher states of consciousness that can be achieved with regular practice, and Lisa will share Deepak Chopra's vision of these higher states based on Vedantic wisdom teachings.
A meditation practice is recommended for anyone who wishes to enjoy deeper peace, greater freedom from habitual stressors, and greater life perspective.
