"We all need time to take a moment,

a moment to breath, a moment with nature,

and a moment to just connect with the present moment.” ~ Donna

Why I practice Meditation ?

​

To remind myself that nothing is perfect and everything is constantly changing. If we stop and take a few breaths we can shift our focus away from the overactive doing mind to a more calm connected state of being.

​

Why I teach Meditation ?

​

7 years ago when I was hit with post viral fatigue and adrenal fatigue and battled with no energy to even get out of bed in the morning. I was at a low point both physically and mentally. I had all the love and support around me that I needed but the mind was trying to sabotage my normal optimistic outlook. At this point a close teacher reminded me to connect back to my regular meditation practice. This shift in my daily meditation routine helped me see the light in the darkness - and that through meditation and mindfulness practices I was able to come back to my inner calm.  

​

So ultimately I want to share my learning and guide others through meditation on their own journey to inner calm and well-being.  Meditation doesn’t need to be this image of a zen yoga ninja sitting in a painful crossed legged lotus position. Meditation comes in many forms and with routine can be both transformative and something really enjoyable!

​

I look forward to sharing the practice of meditation with you! x
