Mindfulness Mami

I've done very short meditations before but typically have had a difficult time being able to make it a habit or do longer ones. Samantha's guided meditations have been a very helpful entry into a longer meditation and have become a very sacred part of my weeks for taking time for myself and keeping me grounded. They have forced me to sit with some emotions I tend to avoid in a healthy manner and I feel very centered, relaxed, and way less scattered after the sessions. I have noticed a lot of progress in my ability to be grounded amidst stressful situations due to what I have learned in the sessions. Additionally, her sessions are quite pedagogical in the sense that she explains how to use the tools of meditation and mindfulness in other settings outside of the session and gives a lot of information on the whys, the origins of certain practices, and the scientific benefits. There is also a lot of variation in the types of meditations offered while still being quite structured. She is also very encouraging and tailors the sessions to her clients very directly based on their needs and what may be happening around them. Overall, I'd highly recommend Samantha's meditation sessions as something to include in one's routine, especially given the stress that feels never-ending with the world right now.

I have anxiety disorder, so it can be very very difficult for me to be at rest enough to engage with myself. Samantha’s meditations help me focus on my body and on one thing that brought me joy. It provided me with an opportunity to pause.
