This New Year, you only need to make one resolution – to take up meditation.
Rescu. spoke with Carolyne Gowen, a meditation practitioner of 16 years and teacher of the practice trained by Deepak Chopra, about how taking up meditation has impacted positively upon her life, she said:
“Meditation has made a dramatic difference to who I am, I love passing on the gift of meditation to others. The truth is by meditating everyone has the best chance of tapping into their core consciousness, and by bringing it into their daily lives, help define and ultimately achieve their goals for 2012. Whether people want to give up a vice or adopt fresh habits, by taking 20 minutes out of their day to stop and meditate a whole new world of possibilities opens up. Meditation is a journey to the centre of our very being, which allows us to have greater peace, love and success. The technique I teach is practical, simple and really enjoyable and the benefits accrue rapidly.”
