THANK YOU! ❤️ To those who joined us for some meditation this week. After some words of wisdom, we practised a Body Scan which is a great technique for connecting and bringing about awareness of our physical bodies. We followed this with an overview of the Buddhist practice of Loving-Kindness and learnt that by practising this we can cultivate compassion and let go of judgement and hostility. Research has found it can also reduce stress and physical pain. Studies finding that emotional stress and negative emotions can worsen physical pain, whereas positive emotions cultivated through Loving-Kindness meditation, increase pain tolerance and reduce emotional stress. We then practised a Loving-Kindness meditation whilst Heather played Himalayan singing bowls. The consensus was that the practice of Loving-Kindness helps you feel better about yourself and uplifted afterwards, which can only be a good thing.

Our next classes will be in two week’s time. Agenda to follow in due course. Love Heather and Richard of Claire Healing/ Meditation Matters!💜xx

Hi All, we only have two air beds still available for our next ‘Free Spirit’ Group event on 17th July 2026 when we will be introducing our ‘Dream-Time’ experience with hands-off Reiki healing. If all goes well, we intend to offer further sessions going forward. If you would like to join us call/ message Heather on 07813 629781. Here is some information and likely benefits of ‘Dream-Time’…

'Dream-Time’ is an immersive guided meditation experience developed by Claire Healing💜/ Meditation Matters! with the purpose of providing deep relaxation and healing in a calm ambient setting. Designed to be suitable for those with faith, or without, as well as those new to meditation or individuals with experience, it is ideally practised lying down preferably on a bed/ air bed (in the Savasana/ Co**se pose) or for those who find this difficult, the session can be experienced in a chair. You will be encouraged to ‘let go’ and allow yourself to gently sink into a meditative state aided by the use of harmonious sounds, tranquil music and carefully structured vocal guidance.

Utilising proven relaxation techniques and powerful Mindfulness to access the Present Moment and calm the mind, the session will transition into a guided visualisation as well as a deeper relaxed hypnagogic state of ‘Theta’ brainwaves. Considered a gateway to the subconscious, this is often characterised by vivid, dream-like experiences whilst the practitioner remains awake. Even for those who lack meditation skills, there is the potential to reach the slower ‘Delta’ brainwave state (experienced during deep dreamless sleep) which is deeply restorative and healing for both mind and body.

With its origins in Buddhism, Mindfulness is one of the most scientifically researched meditation techniques offering many well-being benefits, making it a natural choice for incorporation into ‘Dream-Time.’ Scientific research of Mindfulness has found the following key benefits: Reduced stress, anxiety and depression by lowering cortisol levels and decreasing rumination; improved cognitive function including improved working memory, focus and attention; better sleep quality; improved immune function; lower blood pressure; reduction in chronic pain symptoms and enhanced Self-Awareness helping to fight behavioural issues like addictions. Research has found measurable structural changes in the brain leading to reduced amygdala size responsible for fear and stress responses and strengthened prefrontal cortex leading to better logical thinking and emotional regulation. Studies have also found increased levels of empathy and compassion in those practising Mindfulness. Of course, there are also numerous anecdotal and spiritual benefits for long-term practitioners.

‘Dream-Time’ has been designed to alleviate stress and promote relaxation offering the potential to benefit a variety of physical issues. Not only is ‘Dream-Time’ a more accessible form of meditation for beginners, it can also help with experiencing states of awareness and oneness more typical in a more advanced meditator.

IT’S THIS FRIDAY 22ND MAY! We have only 3 air beds available if you would like to join us for what will be an interesting and relaxing evening. Call/ message Heather 07813 629781 for booking and payment details, further information below xx

Claire Healing 💜/ Meditation Matters! will collaborate again with the amazing and talented Zen With Ben for our next ‘Free Spirit’ Group event. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be welcomed into a softly lit, calming space designed to help you slow down and unwind. We’ll begin with an introduction to Shamanism/ Journeying, followed by a short Shamanic ceremony. You will then be gently guided into a Shamanic Journey meditation, supported by the rhythm of the drum - helping you to relax and move into an altered state of consciousness. Periodically, the drum will be directed over the body to enhance the healing effects of the rhythmic vibrations. The intention will be to journey to the Lower World to meet your Power Animal. From there, the evening will flow naturally into a deeply immersive Sound Bath with crystal bowls, harp and gongs. Expect rich, layered tones, subtle harmonies and carefully guided transitions designed to help your body fully relax and your mind drift into stillness. This is not just sound - it’s a guided experience, allowing you to switch off, reset, and be carried through a journey of deep relaxation.

This event is suitable for adults only and is restricted in terms of numbers so prompt notification of attendance is advised. Advanced booking and payment is therefore necessary and is £20 per person. No previous experience of meditation practice nor Shamanism is necessary for either session and full guidance will be provided. The Shamanic Journey and Sound Bath meditation are ideally experienced lying down on air beds which will be supplied, although for those who find this difficult, suitable chairs will be available. Further details will be provided to those attending and we will require completion of forms including a PAR-Q & Liability Waiver, unless previously completed and on the assumption there has been no changes in your circumstances which may for health reasons preclude your attendance.

Please arrive from 7.00pm for 7.15pm prompt start and expect a 9.00pm finish. If for any reason the event cannot go ahead, is rescheduled or significantly changed, a full refund will be given. Please call/ message 07813 629781 for payment and reservation. Complimentary bottle of water provided, but for comfort and warmth we recommend you bring your own pillows/ blankets etc. Depending on numbers, Claire Healing 💜 intends to make a discretionary donation from the entrance fee to the Charity Essex Wildlife Trust (Registered Charity Number 210065). Shamanism is all about nature connection, so this is an apt Charity for our event. Looking forward to seeing you there. Love Heather of Claire Healing 💜xx

THANK YOU! ❤️ To those who joined us for some Zen themed meditation this week. After an enlightened thought, we learnt about Zen meditation practice and then practised Zazen (sitting Zen). This is an eyes open meditation in which sitting posture is especially important. We followed this with an overview of Zen Buddhism discovering it is a blend of Indian Mahayana Buddhism and Chinese Taoism. Zen arrived in Japan in the 12th century and was later introduced to the West largely through the work of Japanese scholar D.T. Suzuki (1870–1966). We finished off with a trip to Japan with our Guided Visualisation “A Japanese Zen Garden and Zen Buddhist Temple.” Glad you enjoyed the class, in particular the visualisation, and hope to see you again soon. Love Heather and Richard of Claire Healing/ Meditation Matters!💜xx
