The Meditation Effect

It was 2004. I was a college student driving home from class when I started to feel light headed. I had plans to meet friends for a movie later that evening. Life had other plans apparently as my lightheadedness began to be accompanied by an unfamiliar sense of dread. I arrived home and unraveled into a state of panic. My body was tingly, I could not breathe, nothing felt normal. “What was going on?!” I was surely going to pass out. Or die. I managed to get in my car and drive a few blocks down to my Dad’s therapy office. He laid me on my stomach, guided me in mindful breathing, and rubbed my back.

Just as an earthquake delivers after-shocks, my panic attack left me anxious and confused. Two weeks into this anxious nightmare came an invitation to attend an introduction to meditation. Over the next few years, I would come to learn the Universe has a way with timing.

I knew very few who meditated at the time. What I knew most intimately was a new, personal living hell. Somewhere deep inside of me I had come to recognize this living hell as a wake up call; a call to action.

I decided to give it a shot, something needed to change. In hindsight, I can See that my suffering was the catalyst (wake-up call) that caused me to grab the rope out of the quicksand of self-destruction.

What I found is that meditation offered relief from my over-active mind and over-stimulated nervous system. I was able to practice creating Space in my internal world. More and more, I practiced building a gentle and graceful relationship with the anxious energy moving through me. As I began to come into alignment with my self, my mind/body state progressively shifted.

Meditation utterly changed my Life and I became inspired to share the practice with others. After traveling to India and undertaking an extensive teacher training program, I created The Meditation Effect. My role as a Meditation teacher blossomed into Life Coaching, Breathwork, and Yoga, fueled by my passion for personal development. We will inevitably integrate these tools into our coaching work together. Our daily practices are the backbone of our progress. The future is yours for the creating. Namasté
