MEDITATION CLASSES BRISBANE
MEDITATION FOR all on brisbane’s northside
Clinically proven to lower stress and anxiety, reduce blood pressure and improve mood, focus and sleep, meditation is not about controlling your mind, but rather about preventing your thoughts from controlling you.
Often referred to as the 'Royal Path' of yoga, meditation is a practice that requires dedication in order to reap the rewards, but the rewards are rich and bountiful. Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned yogi, we have regular meditation offerings in our beautiful Grange Brisbane yoga studio and online to help set you on the meditation path and maintain your practice.
Meditation has been part of the fabric of human existance and cultures for thousands of years. Practiced traditionally as a means of connecting with higher spiritual reality, in recent decades meditation has been recognised by the medical profession as a legitimate tool to help manage physical and mental health and wellbeing.
Popularised by American Professor Jon-Kabat Zinn, mindfulness meditation techniques are now offered in hospitals, clinics and corporations in Brisbane and around the world. There is no deep spiritual secret to unlocking mindfulness meditation. Mindfulness is simply the practice of being present and allowing yourself to focs on the experience of what is happening in the present moment.
While mindfulness is arguably the most accessible form of meditation for many, it is only one of hundreds of techniques and practices that have evolved from various spiritual traditions. Mantra meditation, vedic chanting, yoga nidra, transcendental meditation, visualisation and even instinctive meditation offer many gateways to meditation to fit an individual’s unique rhythm.
Many of our regular yoga classes incorporate meditation in addition to breathwork (pranayama) and the physical practice of yoga asana. Our monthly meditation classes on the 1st Sunday of each month at SoHo Yoga in inner north Brisbane offer a gentle introduction to mindfulness meditation, followed by a deeply relaxing yoga nidra (yoga sleep) to prepare you for the week ahead. And check out our events schedule for special meditation offerings throughout the year.
