Stress

The disruption caused by stress to our cardiovascular, respiratory, immune, digestive, skeletal, cellular repair, reproductive, and endocrine systems – as well as many key brain functions – is unrelenting.

Too much of the stress hormone cortisol kills brain cells and leads to cognitive decline.

Our sleep quality suffers due to the sheer volume of unprocessed noise and stress chemistry in our nervous system.

When in flight or fight mode, the amygdala releases neurotransmitters which make us feel anxious, and our nervous system activates the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) which can make us feel negative, defensive and sad.

Even if we feel fine mentally, we could be storing it up physically. Eventually, we get sick with anything from frequent colds, headaches and migraines, to serious life-threatening conditions such as a heart attack or IBD. 

Instead of helping our survival, our over-activated stress response is sapping our energy, putting our bodily systems out of balance, and damaging our physical and mental health.

By working with your nervous system, Beeja meditation for stress enables your mind and body to enter a resting state far deeper than in your deepest point of sleep - giving the systems which are unbalanced in your body a chance to realign. 

Damaged tissues are repaired more efficiently.

We begin to feel more settled, not just during our meditation, but throughout the day as our amygdala begins to calm down.

Our mind is able to form new inter-neuronal pathways which can free us from negative behaviours and habits.

The nervous system is able to flush out all those toxic emotions from the past we’ve been carrying around; giving you a positive new lease of life.

Levels of cortisol and other stress hormones are reduced by up to a third, whilst production of our happy hormones is increased; making us much more resilient to unnecessary future stress.

Studies on those practicing Beeja meditation show greater levels of relaxation and mental alertness in day-to-day living. In short, we feel energised, inspired and calm; ready to live life to the max.
