What is Applied Meditation?
It is the use of meditation as a tool to enhance overall well-being, and to rehearse peaceful and productive responses to life's challenges.
What is Scripting?
Meditation Scripting is the process of intentionally designing the thoughts, feelings, and actions you want to bring to life's challenges. Conducted within the safe space of the meditation state. it allows you to rehearse peaceful, effective responses while the brain is most receptive to learning, laying the foundation for lasting behavioral change.
How long are the sessions?
Each session is 60 to 75 minutes.
What are the rates of your services?
Please contact us for more information.
What is meant by "developmental challenges"?
As it is said, " If you want to learn to swim, you have to get into the water." If you are going to realize patience , diplomacy, or impose self discipline, then THE UNIVERSE IS GOING TO PROVIDE THE
SITUATIONS AND CIRCUMSTANCES THAT ARE GOING TO CHALLENGE/TEST YOUR CONVICTION TO DO SO. No one is excluded from the lessons the universe offers towards our greatest good.
How will I continue my meditations after each session?
After session 1,2 and the composition of your meditation script you will receive a recording to establish and maintain your meditation practice.
How does this compare to therapy?
Applied Meditation Scripting is not psychotherapy. It does not replace care provided by a licensed mental health professional. It is an invaluable learning process that uses meditation to help you intentionally cultivate and rehearse the thoughts, attitudes, and behaviors that support your
therapy because it supports your ability to put physician and/or therapist recommendations into daily practice.
Can I work on more than one past trauma offered in Session 2?
Some clients decide to do Session 2 for multiple issues.
What if I only want to do Session 2?
Session 1 is the prerequisite to all other sessions.
Do I have to do all the sessions?
No. Session one is the prerequisite to all other sessions. After that, the rest is up to you. The Managed | Mind's Coaching Program is designed to support you in empowering yourself.
Do you teach Mindfulness?
Yes and No. Meditation scripting is a mindful process in that it assists you to live fully present in the
moments that matter. The goal of Applied Meditation is to assist you to live the values and principles you are seeking to manifest to improve your outcomes.
How often do you recommend doing a meditation script?
Your personalized meditation script should be done daily. Scripting is an excellent means to support your yearly goals and objectives. Many clients treat themselves or gift a friend a new personalized meditation script every year, either on their birthday or for the New Year. Other clients prefer their personalized meditation script monthly, or as needed when situations present themselves. For example: preparing for an upcoming challenge/event; death of a loved one; work or relationship challenge.
What if I just want to talk with you and get your perspective on an issue or challenge?
There are many existing clients who do just that. The Managed Mind Consult is the time when I listen attentively and non-judgmentally, I speak clearly and definitively; and I recommend a course of action that will be in harmony with the science of health and well-being and assist you to better live the truths you espouse.
