Holistic counseling practice since 1987
Meditation continues to be cited in mind-body research as a great way to improve wellness, ease stress, and enhance empowerment and insight. This dynamic workshop will focus on the three key steps I’ve had ongoing and extended success with in my Centering Tools practice, for you to be able to fully meditate in ten minutes.
Learn to meditate in 10 minutes in this dynamic one hour class offered through Brighton Continuing Education at Brighton High School, Room 158, 1150 Winton Rd S., Rochester, NY 14618. You will quickly and profoundly relax, de-stress, heighten awareness, unleash creative potential, receive your intuitive impressions, and recharge your energy!

. . . we need to come to an integrative place of completion and emptying,with all parts of ourselves – body, mind, heart, gut and spirit, so to speak – that then naturally returns us to a place of authentic clarity and a “clean center”. Where we feel and experience challenge is where the cutting edge of our transformation that wants to emerge as our higher level of becoming exists.
Here is a writing exercise I created to release guilt, shame and blame for you to try. I invite you to settle back, close your eyes, and take several easy, deep, cleansing breaths. . . As you sense your breathing becoming automatic in its regular, opening rhythm, for your next several breaths say the word free to yourself. Observe your sensations . . . and then for the next minute or so, say to yourself in this sequence the following three sentences – one at a time for several breaths, followed by the second, then the third: . . . I am free from guilt . . . I am free from blame . . . I am free from shame . . . Continue to observe your sensations as you fully experience your easy, deep, regular breaths. Then say repeatedly to yourself for a minute or two, I forgive . . . and I am forgiven . . .

We always live our life in paradoxes and in multiple dimensions. Frequently when life gets us down through its tough, tragic “peaks” we lose sight, for many understandable reasons, of other, opposite dimensions that are there to sustain and support us, often in surprising ways.
Centering for Wellness (www.centeringforwellness.org), a not-for-profit organization I founded in 2009 which offers self-help, empowerment and wellness transformation programs in the greater Rochester, NY community to at-risk populations, is sponsoring a free talk I’m offering this Saturday, December 17 at 7:30pm: Finding and Keeping Your Inner Center to De-Stress and Empower This Holiday Season.
