Tips to prepare for your Vipassana Retreat

Wed, 01 Jun 2016 16:20:33 -0700

DO :

Bring shoes you can slip in and out of easily !

This means no shoe laces, no boots, no high tops… I calculated that you’ll have to take off and put on your shoes at least once an hour, every hour between 4am and 10pm….

Think about bringing your favourite comfy sheets.

When you finally jump into your bed at the end of a looooong day, you’ll be so grateful to cozy up in a familiar scent and favourite fabric .

Plan and prepare as much as you can ahead of time.

You don’t want to start worrying too much during the retreat… so make sure to handle anything you need to before leaving as you won’t have internet nor phone access. No one wants to freak out because of an unpaid bill , a window left open or about who will be feeding the fish while you’re away.

Leave the Dhamma center’s office number with your friends or family as an emergency contact.

So your F&F don’t worry either and know where to find you in case of an emergency.

Bring layers! Layers! Layers!

During meditation your body temperature will go through all sorts, from cold to boiling hot, so come prepared.

Bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper.

Even if it is dead quiet, the complete silence will make any noise louder and you’ll hear doors slamming in the night when people go for a midnight toilet run.

Make sure to do some stretch training ahead of the retreat.

It will help you sit longer and prevent muscle stretchy pain.

In fact, bring some tiger balm, thai balm or bengay cream.

Because you will think you’ve hurt your muscles, whether back, neck, thighs or else. It makes it all easier. Meditating 10 hours a day is like a marathon for the mind, so be prepared, like an athlete.

Switch off your smartphone mobile data settings BEFORE the...Read More

Neal Yard's Sleep Workshop

Tue, 15 Mar 2016 13:55:35 -0700

What a great experience at Neal’s Yard’s Sleep workshop tonight ! Ella and Nyasha, both store managers, herbalists and therapists for the Natural Remedies brand, organise a monthly workshop right in the heart of Covent Garden. This month the focus is on achieving better sleep through herbalism, aromatherapy and relaxing facial treatments.
We were 5 ladies in attendance, although only 2 of us actually ever experienced sleep issues. After introductions, we went straight into the first relaxing concoction: the Sleepy Time Milk. A combination of warmed up oat milk, Ashwangadha powder, Rose water, N.Y.’s own Unwind Flower Essence Blend and a little honey. This is a recipe invented by their colleague Tipper Lewis. Absolutely heart and soul warming even if a little grainy and a slight bitterness to it, but we all loved it and had a second serving.
Ella and Nyasha explained the virtues of many relaxing and sleep-inducing herbs extracted in tinctures, essences and oils. We tried the tinctures licking the back of our hands, something like licking salt before a healhty tequila shot (NOT! Lol). So we tasted a little drop of The Unwind Flower Essence Blend (made of organic brandy, flower essence of vervain, impatiens, agrimony, rock water, walnut, aspen, white chestnut) and a homemade super-duper herbal tincture made of Skullcap, Passion flower, Oat and Ashwagandha, to be taken as 2-5 ml in just a little water.
The lovely ladies took us then on a sensory journey during which we needed to guess 4 aromatherapy oils with a big old sniff. Well guess what, I pretty much got them all wrong by name, although I did properly guess the olfactory descriptions for each of them! We learnt that Cardamon is grounding, relaxing and good for nervous exhaustion. That the exotic Ylang Ylang releases stress...Read More
