It has been exciting to share the recent posts to all the readers following me in the world. Also, would always love to hear your comments and feedback. Please leave comments and anything else you would like to know about the benefits of meditation that may not have been covered.
The article in the most recent posts made a lot of sense to me. Through science, they are letting me know how the human body is affected by the high vibrational energy that I am channeling into all those that come to my groups.
For me, I see the people instantly start to change around me. Some, can feel the energy during their first meditations with me. Others, cannot feel the energy, but certainly notice the positive changes around them when they go to work the next day. Plus others, about 95% who attend, have the best sleep that same night. I welcome all beginners to my groups. It is an easy meditation to start with, as my meditations are guided for you to follow.
Also, as most of us have western bodies, I encourage those who attend to either sit in chairs or lay on the beds. Nothing worse that getting pins and needles in your legs while meditating.
Also, I give thanks to all those who have joined us throughout the year. There have been some famous people join us also. I have only realised this, when others have mentioned it to me.
For me, everyone is equal. Famous or not, means nothing to me. Everyone is an individual. In this day and age, way too many of us are suffering from stress. My observations show me that stress is the main ingredient that then grows into all sorts of weird and odd illnesses. Everyone seems to suffer differently.
Most of all, when people are stressed, I find they lose their humaness. They seem to go numb on the inside and as the article excerpts I have shared, suggests through scientific research, stress releases bad chemicals through the body that ages you quickly.
Also, I will be posting up live recordings of my meditations soon. Promise. For those that have listened to them, were amazed at the energy they could feel coming through the recordings.
On another note, please place all paper in for recycling. Don’t print what is not necessary. You will be surprised how many trees are cut down to make paper. If we are all conscious of what we do and don’t use coffee paper cups. There will be a lot more trees and forest left on the earth. Have a great Christmas everyone. Hopefully will get a couple more posts up before then.

We found a range of disease-fighting genes were active in the relaxation (meditation) practitioners that were not active in the control group, Dr Herbert Benson, associate professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, who led the research, says.

The good news for the control group with the less-healthy genes is that the research didn’t stop there. The experiment, which showed just how responsive genes are to behaviour, mood and environment, revealed that genes can switch on, just as easily as they switch off.
Harvard researches asked the control group to start practising relaxation methods everyday, says Jake Toby, hypnotherapist at London’s BodyMind Medicine Centre, who teaches clients how to induce the relaxation effect through meditation.
After two months, their bodies began to change: the genes that help fight inflammation, kill diseased cells and protect the body from cancer all began to switch on.

The warmer weather has come our way here in Sydney and along with it, more new people have been brave enough to step out of their cosy homes to join us.

Thought it would be a good idea to list some of the points made by the new people joining our groups. Also what they would like to get out of meditation.

• Elena would like more peace and comfort in her life - 11 Aug 09
• Matt wants to be more relaxed and have more compassion - 18 Aug 09
• J wants clarity, energy and more focus in his life - 8 Sept 09
• Prab wants direction, employment and step out of his depression - 8 Sept 09
• Cat wants more energy and to rid herself of the depression and anxiety - 15 Sept 09
• Alice wants to be able to relax and be more positive in life. Also releasing negative thoughts - 15 Sept 09

As they continue with meditation, I will tell you about the great progress that will be made in their lives. Never ceases to amaze me at how powerful, good energy can be. The thought crosses my mind many times, why take drugs when most of the mental problems and ailments can be washed out of us through the high energies shared in meditation groups. Stay posted as I continue to add updates this blog on “The Benefits of Meditation”.

Still considering Zion Wildlife Gardens as a guided meditation tour destination.

Well it’s been two weeks back from my recent trip to New Zealand. It was a much needed break. Now, well, back into life in the city in Sydney. I was excited to get down to Rotorua from Auckland, to enjoy the geothermal spas and have taken some great natural footage whilst there. A local friend took us to a special place called Rainbow Mountain. This will be a must, when I get the meditation tours organised for New Zealand. Great way to decharge the stress from the body, all in half an hour. Nothing like being in a natural pool with temperatures of 39 degrees in the water, on a cold winters night looking up into the night sky to make a wish or two, while watching shooting stars above us. Will get a video uploaded soon once I edit the footage.

Stayed with friends at Piha where the movie “The Piano” was filmed. A beach with black sand. After that we made our way up to Whangherai to visit Zion Wildlife Gardens founded by Craig Busch. Unfortunately they would not allow me to use the video camera on site, but did allow us to use the digital camera, thankfully that Vanessa brought along. Here are some of the recent photos of the beautiful lions, tigers, cheetahs and panther they have on the grounds.

My friends and I did a meditation across the road, late afternoon before our visit to Zion the next day. As the sun was setting, towards the end of the meditation, we felt the great energy of the lions when they started to roar in the distance while the sun was setting. As if they were singing a tribute to the sun. It was such an awesome experience to feel those vibrations through our body.

The spot I will be choosing to guide the meditations will be in front of the white lion enclosure. They have the most beautiful energy I have ever felt. Unfortunately, while I was there, the marketing manager of Zion seemed to be caught up with a film crew, so we did not get a chance to meet. Will be in touch with her soon again, for further discussions. While Chris was guiding our tour, the lions started to roar within a meter and a half of us, and I really could feel the vibrations of the roar clearing my chakras. Most of all the solarplex and the heart chakras. It was an amazing experience, and something I would like to share with others. A great way to get people out of the stress of work and city life, into a sanctuary like Zion that Craig founded and to get connected to the spirit of the lion and tigers. I will continue to add more posts as my concept continues to develop. My efforts are to assist as many people that I can reach, to raise their vibrations and awareness of the great planet we live on, and to start to care for the wonders of nature, that are all around us, outside of our cities. Enjoy the photos.
