Join us for Part 1 of an enlightening conversation with the wonderful Meera as we explore meditation as spiritual beings.  Having suffered from illness and chronic pain for over 30 years, she hit rock bottom and decided to end her life. In choosing to die a miracle occurred and a transcendent experience, the like of which she had never imagined, changed her forever. In 2012 she became an Ishaya Monk and ever since have been teaching people how to experience more peace, happiness and change their relationship with physical, mental and emotional pain. She is passionate about sharing her discoveries and adventures in the world of pain and mental health. She has created courses and workshops for people to learn about meditation, pain management, stress management, emotional wellbeing and other associated topics. Dive deep into the world of Ishaya monks and discover how meditation shapes Meera's spiritual practice. We'll uncover the secrets of Ascension and other powerful meditation techniques, discuss the role of thoughts during meditation, and delve into the transformative realms of awareness, stillness, and silence. Plus, we tackle the profound concepts of "what you resist persists" and the pursuit of true peace.
