The best investments I’ve ever made are those that have given me knowledge and practices that support me to feel safe in my body, to have space between me and my thoughts, to know myself deeply. To stop living in the past and the future. To stop seeking happiness in possessions, titles and relationships and find happiness at its source: inside myself. To be self-sufficient for my own happiness.

I've come to learn through my own experience and with the great honour of being a Vedic meditation teacher, that relaxation is our natural state. Stress is a common state that we have normalised, but it's not normal.

Your needs as a human being are uniquely yours, and they’re changing all the time. This is where Vedic meditation comes in. Every meditation allows the nervous system to throw off stress, thereby making it easier to detect from inside what you need to feel safe, healthy and whole.

Resilience is one of those things that comes into our awareness when presented with an experience we may rather not have had ~ often an overwhelming stress, trauma, challenge or loss. For this reason, the impact of meditation on our resilience is something we may not realise until faced with adversity or met with an immense demand or challenge.

From the Vedic perspective, to make decisions and take action based on your fine level of feeling is to allow universal intelligence to be your guide. This is how we make our personal contribution to the evolution of all things, which is the purpose of life and creation.

As the depth of your commitment to your natural state grows, nature will deepen her support of you. It took many days and nights, many moons to birth you in all your uniqueness. To the extent you resist your unique design, you’ll feel friction and a lack of wholeness in life. To the extent you embody your embrace design, you’ll feel held and infinitely resourced.
