In this blog we take a look at 5 ways to practice gratitude. What does it mean to practice gratitude? Gratitude is an expression of thankfulness, it is expressed with appreciation and kindness and it is the emotion connected with abundance or ‘having’. When we actively practice gratitude, we cultivate this positive experience and emotion consciously, recognising all that we have to be grateful for and working on the practice of being grateful for the situations we would like to welcome into our lives but which have not yet manifested.

As well as giving you 5 ways to practice gratitude, we will also share a little about the positive health benefits of practicing gratitude and give some guidance on why incorporating simple ways to practice gratitude into your life can have momentous effects.

In our last blog, we took a look at how meditation can help you to let go and release unwanted thoughts, feelings and behaviours from your life, as well as lots of other things to let go of.

This time, we’re moving forward and taking a look at meditation with intention, the intention of moving forward.

Once we have worked towards letting go of that which no longer serves us, it is important to take our focus to that which we do want, to take our attention to meditation for moving forward.

In this blog you will find some helpful discussion and the free guided meditation Moving On. We hope you enjoy this resource and look forward to your questions and comments about meditation on moving forward.

One of the biggest challenges of the human condition is how difficult it can be to move on from the past. We are able to use our minds to actively rehash and relive past experiences, this practice can cause us emotional and mental suffering and prevent our ability to live in the present moment, enjoying new experiences and choices.

We can use meditation in a number of ways to help us let go of the past, as well as letting go of anger and other challenging emotions. There is no single meditation on letting go, and in this blog we discuss some different methods of meditation about letting go, as well as offering you a letting go meditation script and a free letting go guided meditation to help you on your journey.

Calm Birth Meditation for Pregnancy & Labor

Of all the meditation and healing modalities offered at Mettitation, the Calm Birth Method and Calm Birth meditation may be considered of supreme importance. Pregnancy and labour are momentous times in life. The pregnant person goes through an incredible journey and alteration, the pregnant couple experience this together, and the new life is created and begins to experience existence. In pregnancy and labour there is much that can be done to minimise trauma and stress and to maximise the beauty and awesomeness of the experience. Healthy children and healthy parenting begins in the earliest stages of pregnancy, and the Calm Birth meditation assists in this wish.
