40 Days of AWE

“Awe is the feeling of being in the presence of something vast that transcends your current understanding of the world.”
Dacher Keltner,

Our next 40-Day Meditation will focus on AWE. Awe ignites a cascade of ‘feeling good’ throughout our body…our physical body and the emotional body where soul and spirit reside. When we dwell in Awe, we activate our vagus nerve, and our capacity for beauty and wonder. A meditation practice one of the best prescriptions for health.

1 meditation per day keeps the vagus nerve activated

(doesn’t really rhyme, but makes for a great well-being prescription).

We have a beautifully designed system in our bodies called the Renewal Response. This is our antidote to the Stress Response. The renewal response is where hope, love, AWE and compassion live. AND it takes intention and attention. Dwelling in AWE begins with awareness, being with, and noticing your internal experience so that you can mount a healthy response to conflict or angst, and turn hope into truth, The ripple effect from your own response has significant impact on those around you, and who knows how much farther.

Join us from the comfort of your own home for Kundalini Meditation Practice. For those new and experienced with Kundalini Yoga, adopting a daily meditation helps to cultivate inner strength and joy. It helps establish inner peace and a state of flow and ease in your life. Open to anyone who wishes to be part of a community to be supported in their spiritual journey.

What will we do?

Each 30 minute practice begins with a tuning in mantra followed by 5 minutes of gentle yoga stretches, movement, breathwork and postures. The meditation will be 11 minutes. We end with a savasana and closing blessing.

Kundalini yoga is a powerful technology that is intended for everyone of all shapes, sizes and walks of life. Known as the yoga of awareness, each morning incorporates movement and postures, as well as breath work, relaxation and meditation. The combination of repetitive movement, breathing and relaxing helps to exercise our ‘ nervous system’ making us more resilient and energized to deal with the day to day stressors of life.
