MEDITATION

Service Description

Meditation (mindfulness and stillness) have been shown to have a range of health benefits in assisting medical illnesses (anxiety, depression, cardiovascular disease, etc) and in promoting emotional and social well- being. When practiced regularly, it can be an invaluable life skill, especially for children where it that may assist in regulating behaviour, promoting states of health and emerging evidence that it may change traits of long term mediators. Dr Webb has lectured regularly on the science of meditation and is a sought after speaker. She has been meditating since she was taught this skill as a young child. She is an active member of the mindfulness and stillness meditation community. She has also lectured on the psycho-neuro-immunological benefits of meditation in promoting health and well-being. She is a current committee member (2017- ongoing) of Confluence, a network established to promote conversations in the traditions of meditation. She has also completed formal training in mindfulness and stillness meditation therapy by leading experts in the field in Australasia. We look forward to assist you to trial a class of meditation for your child. Dr Webb does not believe in a one size fits all approach for meditation and prefers to individualise classes and therapy according to your child's unique needs and learning styles. Dr Webb will lead the classes herself and Canterbury Children's Clinic strives to create a peaceful environment for this to occur.
