One reason why I wanted to get the blog kick started now is because I am going along to my first meditation class tonight. I am trying to overcome images of monks and burning incense and am very happy that my wonderful friend (who is also my Manager at work) Lois is coming along with me. I will come back to how I stumbled across meditation and what it is doing to help my recovery but for any budding wanna-bees I thought it would be useful to simultaneously talk about the course as I'm doing it.
Of course, meditation is not for just for people who are particularly stressed or anxious, it can be a great way to get a bit of much needed 'me' time, to learn a few relaxation techniques which all of us can benefit from or to just do something different with your spare time. Hopefully not everyone reading my blog will be poorly or need advice on anxiety or depression so this should strike a bit of interest for those people just interested in a healthier work/life balance or anyone looking for tips on how to overcome basic worries enabling you to wind down or sleep a little easier.
