Wrestling with Worry?

Like a skein of tangled yarn, worry, and its capacity to produce fear and anxiety can affect us all and circulate within wider society. Worry, which arises from natural concern, can become an anxiety problem. Unwittingly we may create this anxiety for ourselves, pass it on to others and receive it back – potentially doubled in magnitude.

Indeed, currently there are many public issues to disturb our mental peace. And this reality is not always helped by the ready availability of media sensationalism.

Be that as it may, our work at the Stillness Meditation Therapy Centre is all about offering a sound and proven way to assist others in finding calm control within themselves. And, through stillness meditation, the gift of some sense of stability to pass on to others.

As individuals, clearly if we are at ease within ourself, while cause for concern may arise at a personal or even global level, we can dismiss most anxieties with satisfying occupation and rational thinking. But when not at ease, anxiety will increase and take us, via the imagination, to negative thinking, increased stress levels and irrational or at least, disproportionate fears. And of course, worry, introspection and increased nervous tension feed anxiety and likely lead to depression.

It is a fact that an inability to slow down physically and mentally, or ever-increasing irritability, might prompt a visit to the doctor for sedatives. People will say that they’re always tired, can’t cope, can’t sleep, feel tense all the time and are always in a hurry. Tension causes overreactions to happenings in life in which people feel edgy and distracted. And these may lead to reliance upon medications for physical ailments such as high blood pressure, stomach ulcers, allergies and migraine headaches among other psychosomatic illnesses.

And so we invite you to join others who already find calm through
STILLNESS MEDITATION THERAPY (SMT)

“The silence
which wraps
its loving arms around me
after I close my eyes.
the touch of hands
gently over the top of my head
and my shoulders
calm me down.
the gentle voice
subsumed,
at a distance from me
focuses my mind
on the main thought …
think of nothing
and just be
give my mind a rest …”
