the morning practice
Welcome to the morning practice, where we invite you to participate in a transformative ritual through simple yet powerful techniques in just 45-50 minutes.
Our daily sessions Mon - Fri begin at 7am, the perfect time
to meditate before you start your day, capturing your mind
in that lucid in-between state ideal for deep inner work.
However, if 7am isn’t feasible for you, don’t worry.
Each session is recorded and available for the next 24 hours in the Lumen Library, allowing you to engage with the practice at a time that suits your schedule.
Get ready to experience a variety of transformative techniques designed to elevate your vibration and start your day powerfully,
building the foundation for a happier, stronger, and brighter you.
toning
Modern science confirms that everything is made up of vibrations, and where there is vibration, there is sound. Nada yoga, an ancient practice, acknowledges the profound impact of sound on the body and mind.
Sound vibrations can promote healing at a cellular level. Specific frequencies in toning
align brainwave activity, promoting relaxation or heightened awareness through
brainwave entrainment.
Nada yoga focuses on root sounds like 'Ah', 'Oo', and 'Mm'. Vedic science describes the body's energy channels, or nadis — ida, pingala, and sushumna — that are activated and harmonised through these vibrations, supporting overall wellbeing.
pranayama (nadi shodhana)
Nadi shodhana (alternate nostril breathing, or channel cleaning breathing) is a pranayama breathing technique (prana: vital energy, yama: take control) it's a technique that calms the mind, body and emotions. The term comes from the Sanskrit nadi, meaning channel, and shodhana, meaning cleaning or purifying.
vipassana-style meditation
Vipassana, which means insight or clear seeing, is an ancient meditation technique that originated in Myanmar (Burma) over 2,500 years ago.
In Vipassana meditation, the focus is on observing the sensations occurring in the body
and cultivating an unbiased and non-judgmental awareness of all experiences that arise.
It involves a systematic exploration of the mind-body connection, allowing us to
see things as they truly are.
visualisation
Visualisation in meditation becomes a profound practice that harnesses the mind’s power to influence wellbeing and accelerate healing. By creating vivid mental imagery and using affirmations to reprogram the brain, individuals can access higher levels of consciousness and activate the body’s innate healing mechanisms.
Scientific research supports the effectiveness of these practices. Studies in neuroplasticity show that the brain can reorganise itself by forming new neural connections. Through regular visualisation and affirmations, we can stimulate areas of the brain associated with positive emotions and healing, such as the prefrontal cortex and the release of endorphins and other beneficial neurochemicals. This dual approach not only fosters a heightened sense of wellbeing but also promotes physical healing by lowering stress hormones
and boosting the immune system.
meta bhavana
Metta Bhavana, also known as loving-kindness meditation, is a practice rooted in Buddhist traditions that involve cultivating universal love, compassion, and goodwill towards oneself and others. By repeating specific phrases or affirmations, we extend heartfelt wishes for happiness, peace, and freedom from suffering to themselves, loved ones, neutral individuals, and even challenging individuals. This intentional cultivation of kindness and compassion fosters a more compassionate and open-hearted approach to one's experiences and interactions. Metta Bhavana has the potential to enhance wellbeing, reduce negativity, and promote a more profound sense of connection and empathy towards all beings.
