Are you stressed and anxious on a regular basis? Do you find yourself wanting to avoid social situations because it all feels too overwhelming? Do you simply want some relaxation and to feel more calm throughout your day?

If the answer is Yes, then you may benefit from Group Meditation.
This isn't the first time i've written about the benefits of Meditation and learning more about energy, but this time I am focusing more on Group Meditation. The reason being, one to one sessions are amazing and very personal, however group sessions have a whole different energy about them. Meditating in a group atmosphere gets you into a higher vibration more easily and more quickly. That is so helpful, especially if you find it a bit of a struggle to get there without constant distraction pulling you out of your zen. I love teaching about meditation and spiritual development practices and the importance of incorporating more of these tools into the everyday. I have experienced first hand how practices such as Meditation and Energy Healing support us in more easily navigating life. This earthly experience is not always easy as I am sure you can agree, and it is easy to feel powerless at times. I know I have in the past, alot! It was only once I discovered Reiki and Meditation that my life shifted significantly and improved for the better. We really do have everything we need within us to move through whatever life throws at us, in a balanced and joyful way. Remember that we chose to be here to help in the ascension of Mother Gaia, even if sometimes we wish we were somewhere else. These tools are intuitive, magical if you like, and we all have them, even if we are not yet utilising them.
We each have the ability to heal ourselves; We DO! If we are listening, our intuition will guide us in the direction needed to find the areas of study that will benefit us even more, the people who will awaken something within us and the places that we walk upon when we travel, and so on. Nothing happens by chance! There are no coincidences. Everything has purpose.
Everything is energy and we are in constant contact with the energy of everything around us. Energy is not something to fear, although it can feel overwhelming if we don't understand what is happening in the moment. This can, at times cause us to want to retreat from the world as a safety mechanism. I have certainly felt that. Have you?
If you are sensitive to energy, it can manifest as anxiety when you come into contact with the energy of other people and places throughout your day. For example, what if someone you work with is going through a really chaotic period in their life, and you are someone who picks up on the energy of others whether you are aware of this or not? Unless you have set firm energetic boundaries, you could also be feeling the same emotions that they are. You may not understand what is happening, and likely it will feel like these are your emotions. You might be confused as to why you feel so emotional or angry, or sad and it can be easy to fall into victim mode. Why is this happening to me? What have I done to deserve this? You might feel that you have mental health issues, when in reality, you are a sensitive energetic being having a human experience with a strong ability to feel the energy of others. You are a Healer!
The reality is we are changing all of the time, and the events that occur in our lives have an impact on us not only emotionally, mentally and physically, but also energetically. Learning how to work with our energy is something that is really beneficial. You can do this through many different modalities, and for me it began with Meditation, and then Reiki.
I recommend Meditation to EVERYONE!!! and I mean everyone. Kids can really benefit from meditating, especially those who have been labelled with ADHD etc. These are sensitive children and meditation and energy healing can be helpful. Meditation and Breathwork, which is also amazing are tools we can use anywhere to bring us into balance quickly.
Meditating and Breathwork are transformative tools that empower us to rebalance our energy whenever we feel the need. the more we work with energy healing such as Reiki, the more in tune we become with what is ours energy and what is not energetically speaking.
Meditation might feel like a bit of a challenge to start with, especially your first few times, though I promise you it gets easier and you may end up absolutely loving it. We all have thoughts that jump in to our minds and distract us when we start to meditate, but please don't let that stop you. It is just a small hurdle that you can easily overcome and the benefits will far outweigh the effort you put in initially. We all experience that in the start and it can discourage you from wanting to continue but I do hope you will stick with it and give it a chance. There will come a point in time, where it just happens, and you will be thrilled you stuck it out. It is akin to learning to drive a manual also known as a Stick Shift for the US people. You think you'll never get it, then all of a sudden, it just clicks. Meditation will bring you what you are ready for and it will become a safe haven to enter and find answers to any question you ever have, to veer you in the direction of your soul's mission, and to bring you into a state of equillibrium time and time again.
The world we are a part of is not always smooth sailing, however utilising the tools we have such as Meditation, Energy Work, Crystals, Herbs, Plants etc, ensure we are each equipped with what supports us to rebalance, connect to our higher selves, providing a higher view point to every situation and to 'feel' what is true for us and what just doesn't feel right.right.
Meditation is the gateway to our higher selves, to spirit and to understanding more of our multidimensionality and the Universe as a whole. It has been used since ancient times and for a long time has been depicted in a way that like many other things in life have been kept as something separate from the majority and only done by pot smoking hippies in the 70s or monks perched high upon a mountain top. Thankfully, it has finally becoming mainstream and within the consciousness of humanity. If we all meditated daily, the world would be a completely different place. Lets start today!
Benefits of Group Meditation are plentiful, though in my opinion the main ones are as follows:
The energy is amplified when meditating with others as we are all energy
You are less likely to get fidgety and distracted and give up
You get to share your experiences if you feel you want to
You are guided on a journey by a teacher so all you need to do is follow along
You are connecting with like minded people
You feel safe
You learn more as you can discuss your experiences and ask questions
You have a new hobby that gets you out of the house if it is an in person class
You are incorporating a new spiritual and wellness practice into your life
You are more likely to stick with it if you are attending a group session
You can join in Online via Zoom or any other video platform from anywhere in the world.
There are of course so many health and wellbeing benefits to meditating regularly and I encourage you to do your own research to find out even more. You might be suprised just how fantastic Meditation can be in altering your life in so many positive ways.
