Massage, Movement and Mindfulness…the Meridi-Yin medicine from within.

Grounded Life is a wellness practise, where health and well being begin within the meridian system of the body-the core activator and blueprint for mind-body wellness and synergy. The experience of movement in the forms of Hatha Yoga and Tai chi are practised to enhance mind body awareness. Movement becomes a means to increase the level of relaxation the mind experiences within the body- movement allows the body to create conditions for the mind to experience stillness. Movement and stillness enable the body to adjust and adapt, bringing the mind and body into alignment and balance. This is important for children and adults alike. The way we move may be used as an important tool to realign our patterns of thinking, doing, and emotion. This strengthens our creative intelligence in our bodies and minds- where wishing away our concerns are replaced with insights into how those very challenges become allies in uncovering and discovering who we are.

For adults- incorporating movement like yoga and Tai chi into a weekly practice creates greater energy and flow and enhances well-being. More and more people are becoming aware of stress reduction through the practise of Hatha Yoga and Tai chi.

For children yoga inspires spatial and physical awareness and improves muscle tone, mental concentration and emotional stability. Children who practise yoga or tai chi, have a deeper sense of emotional stability, are physically more fit and healthy, and are more self confident and tolerant.

Yoga practise as a part of a school program works well, as children experience skilful ways to nurture their energy, reduce fatigue, and enhance the learning process through relaxation. Tai chi teaches collection, softness as strength, and rhythm where the mind and body move as on unit. Grasping as a movement is not just the holding of a posture, but taking it full circle, and integrating applications to life. This is an invaluable life skill, especially as we move from cures of disease to disease prevention.
