Mindfulness Meditation with Vermont Acupuncture & Massage offers a supportive space to slow down and reconnect with yourself. Whether you are completely new to meditation or looking to deepen your practice. Receive individual support or that from a community. Misty provides a grounded, approachable way to practice that meets you where you are.
Research shows that meditation positively influences your nervous system, supporting your parasympathetic nervous system, or “rest and digest” function. Many people believe mindfulness meditation is about stopping thoughts. The mind thinks. This is normal. We do not, however, need to follow the thoughts. Following these thoughts takes us to the past or the future, where fear and anxiety live. Mindfulness meditation is the practice of noticing when we are chasing thoughts and gently, kindly returning our attention to our breath. This practice trains the mind to be more present in the moment, supporting decreased emotional reactivity and increased clarity and compassion for ourselves and others in everyday life.
For those wanting additional support that addresses both physical tension and the inner patterns that often come with stress, this work naturally pairs with other services such as Massage Therapy, Reiki, and Acupressure.
