**About the Session - A Gentle Reset.** A soft Boxing Day meditation to help you clear, release, and gently reset after Christmas. Boxing Day often carries a quiet emotional weight. After the fullness of Christmas Day, the connection, noise, expectations, and movement, there can be a sense of tiredness, sensitivity, or simply the need to exhale. This session is an invitation to slow everything down and land gently back in your body. Before the pace of the day picks up, take an hour to rest, recalibrate, and create space. We’ll be lying on the grass beneath the open sky, allowing stillness, breath, and nature to help the nervous system unwind. This session is especially supportive if you’re feeling flat, tender, socially depleted, overstimulated, or simply wanting a calm, grounded pause during a busy season. **This Meditation session is designed to help you:** • Soften and settle back into your body. • Release leftover tension from the days before. • Calm and rebalance your nervous system. • Clear emotional and mental residue. • Reset gently, without effort or pressure. **The Meditation Session.** **We’ll begin with Yoga Nidra, a guided deep rest practice where you simply lie down and allow the body to soften.** There is nothing to perform or achieve. Once you’re comfortable, staying mostly still helps the nervous system drop into deeper rest. I’ll guide your awareness slowly through the body so the mind can drift, unwind, and settle. **From there, we’ll move into a** **gentle reset visual meditation**, using cooling, clearing imagery and breath to support release and recalibration. This part of the practice is designed as an emotional exhale, helping you let go of what no longer needs to be carried and return to a sense of steadiness and ease. The practice is fully guided, deeply restorative, and suitable for anyone needing a quiet place to land. No experience is needed. This session is beginner-friendly and supported from start to finish. > “Sometimes the most important thing in a whole day is the rest we take between two deep breaths.” > *Etty Hillesum* **When & Where?** 🗓 **Boxing Day — Thursday 26 December** ⏰ **10:30am – 11:30am** 📍 **Edinburgh Gardens, Fitzroy North** We’ll set up on the grass behind the Rotunda. Look for my yoga mat and a **large pink sign** that says *“Free Guided Meditation.”* ***WEATHER NOTES.*** **This is an outdoor session.** If the weather turns rainy, I’ll cancel the session and update the listing beforehand. Please check the Meetup event on the day to confirm it’s still going ahead. Summer mornings are often lovely, but Melbourne does like to surprise us. **What to bring?** • Yoga mat or something comfortable to lie on • Light blanket • Eye covering or small pillow if you enjoy extra comfort • Water • Comfortable clothing If you forget a mat, I’ll have a few spares on hand 😊 **Running Late.** Arriving a few minutes early helps you settle in, get comfortable, and ease into the space before we begin. If you’re running late, please still come 😊 Just join quietly. You won’t disturb anything. **Everyone is welcome.** Whether you’re spending Boxing Day alone, with family, feeling reflective, or simply needing rest, this space is for you. A gentle pause. A quiet reset. A chance to continue the day with more ease. **I look forward to sharing the morning with you 🌿** **Kathy**

https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/3/f/9/b/600_462496283.jpeg ORGASMIC MEDITATION OM is sweeping the world currently because more and more people are becoming awakened to the fact that there is 'more' available when it comes to intimacy and connection in all of our relationships. The Philosophy behind the OM practice is one that we can use as a map in all of our relationships, to develop deeper levels of intimacy, connection and flow. People OM because they desire to: ⚑ Feel more connected, to themselves & to others. ⚑ Feel more confidence & higher levels of vitality ⚑ Feel more in the Orgasmic State ⚑ Feel more comfortable with their body & self expression ⚑ Cultivate greater focus & capacity for attention ⚑ Have more pleasure in their lives The OM practice is simple, specific and repeatable, focusing on the clitoris, the female center of power and pleasure. Every OM is set up the same way so participants can stop thinking and instead follow the feeling, listen to their bodies, and be present. OM Practitioner Training is the perfect way to learn the basics of OM and the philosophy behind the practice, which you can map over any area of your life where there’s connection involved. Once having completed the training you will have access to practitioners world-wide, to continue your OM journey where ever you travel. * OM TRAINING IS FOR BOTH SINGLES AND COUPLES EXPECT FROM TRAINING: ⚑ An introductory to OM philosophy - a way to live in flow state, fueled by desire and in connection. ⚑ The difference between climax and orgasm ⚑ An understanding of what is required for the body to enter into The Orgasmic State ⚑ Techniques to move your attention from your head to your body ⚑ Skills to increase sensation in your body ⚑ Female anatomy and how to find "the spot" ⚑ The Steps to OM ⚑ Stroking technique ⚑ How to ask for what you want, from the voice of your desire HOW IT WORKS: • Sessions 1 & 2: OM Philosophy & The OM Practice 90 minute session. Available in-person or on Skype. • Session 3: Coaching and fine tuning your practice 30 minute session. Available on Skype.
