Namaste Everyone. My name is Jiva and I will be hosting the meditation morning at Greenbank. I am looking forward to meeting everyone and having a great 1-1/2 hour meditation session together. These mornings will be regular monthly event - 1st Sunday of each month.

There is an old saying “the proof of the pudding is in the eating” and this is exactly true with meditation. A person may hear a pudding is sweet and delicious but won’t know what that really means until tasted. Yoga Mantra Meditation is soul food, joyful, peaceful, changing life for the better ….and so much more. But to really understand we need to experience meditation for ourselves. So for this reason, I hope you will take the opportunity to come along on Sunday 7th July and enjoy a taste of meditation.

I will be guiding everyone through 3 traditional practices of meditation with Mantra. Beginning the morning with Yoga Breath+ Mantra to help us settle in and relax, this session is about 15 mins.

From Mantra Breath we move into a time-honoured meditation practice to focus and quieten the mind. Many people come to meditation to calm and rest a busy mind. It’s a very real problem in modern life. So many pressures and responsibilities to shoulder, and our minds become anxious.

We will use meditation beads, called Japa beads, as we focus carefully on Yoga Sound (Mantra). *Japa beads will be supplied during the class with an option to buy a string of beads for $5 for your ongoing personal practice.

When: Sunday 7th July 10am – 11:30 am.

Where: Currong Rooms Greenbank Community Centre , 145 Teviot Road , Greenbank.

What to bring: water bottle, wear comfy warm clothes, and if you have a favourite floor cushion or mat bring that along!

Cost: A free community program run by donations. You can donate when booking in, or there is a ‘donation tin’ on the day. All donations gratefully received 😊 .
