Mind Ease

Most of us experience between 50 000 to 80 000 thoughts a day, when we are experiencing anxiety, many of these thoughts can be stress related. When we examine the nature of these thoughts, most of them are rooted either in the past or in the future. However, as soon as we are able to bring our focus to the present moment, we move away from the stress thoughts and the negative neuro-endocrine cascade that can flood the body and propel us into the HPA syndrome (Hypothalamic, Pituitary Adrenal Axis) – or fight and flight as it is commonly called. We will explore mindfulness techniques with you to bring you into the present moment to manage anxiety in a more effective manner.

MindEase or Hakalau or Peripheral Meditation is an open-eye or waking meditation. Haka means “to focus in” and lau means “to spread out.” This ancient meditation activates the parasympathetic nervous system through accessing peripheral vision and the alpha brain wave pattern—which is a fancy way of saying it helps you to reduce stress and relax. And it’s fair to say everyone could use a little more of that!

An effective meditation technique needs to be simple, comfortable and produce the results that make you want to incorporate it into your daily experience. The key is consistency – making time daily to be quiet, to breathe and to connect with the self.
