Why Choose Guided Meditation?
Sometimes we simply need help slowing down enough to hear ourselves again.
​
A guided meditation gives you intentional time away from everyday distractions while allowing someone else to gently lead the way. You don't have to decide what to focus on or wonder whether you're “doing it right.” You can settle in, listen to the soothing music and my voice, and allow the experience to unfold.
Quiet the Mental Noise
​
Step away from the constant stream of thoughts, responsibilities and everyday distractions.
Create Space for Yourself
​
Give yourself intentional time to pause, breathe and turn your attention inward.
Relax & Unwind
Settle comfortably while soothing music and gentle guidance help create a peaceful atmosphere.
Practice Being Present
Bring your attention back to the moment through breath, visualization and awareness.
Reconnect with Yourself
Create space to notice how you're feeling and what may need your attention.
Support a Regular Practice
Guided experiences can make meditation feel more approachable, especially when you're just beginning.
What Happens During a Group Meditation?
There's nothing to prepare and nothing you need to know before you arrive.
​
When you arrive, you'll choose the space that feels most comfortable for you. Six zero-gravity chairs are available, along with floor space for those who prefer to settle in on a mat, blanket or cushion. Once everyone is comfortable, I'll begin with soothing background music and gently guide you into the meditation using my voice.
​
Depending on the meditation, I may incorporate breathing, visualization, body awareness, affirmations or quiet moments of reflection. Each meditation has its own intention and theme, so no two experiences are exactly the same.
​
Your only job is to get comfortable and listen. If your mind wanders, that's okay. If you become deeply relaxed, that's okay too. Simply allow yourself to experience the meditation in whatever way feels natural to you.
​
For your comfort:
Wear comfortable clothing. If you'd like to use the floor space, please bring a mat along with anything that will help you relax, such as a blanket, pillow or eye covering. You're also welcome to bring water.
Guided Meditations for Different Moments
Not every meditation needs to meet you in the same place.
​
Each guided meditation is created around a particular intention or theme. Some experiences may focus on deep relaxation and grounding, while others may invite reflection, self-love, letting go, gratitude, renewal or reconnecting with yourself.
Breath & Body Awareness
Gently bringing your attention back into your body and the present moment.
Affirmations & Reflection
Thoughtful words and quiet pauses that give you space to connect with what feels meaningful to you.
Visualization
Using guided imagery to help you turn inward and explore the intention of the meditation.
Reiki-Infused Meditation
Select meditation experiences may also include Reiki, adding another layer of gentle energetic support while you rest and receive.
Looking for a Different Kind of Guided Experience?
Explore Hypnosis Meditation
​
If you're interested in a more focused guided experience, Hypnosis Meditation offers another way to turn your attention inward. Using my voice, soothing music and guided suggestion, you'll be gently led through an intentional experience created around a particular theme or focus.
​
Hypnosis Meditation is different from traditional guided meditation, and you remain aware and in control throughout the experience.

Join a Group Meditation
Give yourself time to slow down, turn inward and simply be.
​
Group meditations are offered throughout the year at Ashanti Naturals in Oxford. Each gathering has its own theme and intention, so you can choose an experience that speaks to where you are or what you need at the time.
​
No meditation experience is necessary. Come as you are, get comfortable and allow me to guide you through the experience.
​
Create a Private Group Meditation
Gather your favorite people and create a peaceful experience just for your group.
​
Private guided meditations can be arranged for groups of 4 or more, giving friends, family or small groups an opportunity to slow down, reconnect and share the experience together.
​
Your meditation can be personalized around an intention or theme that feels meaningful for your group.
Private group meditations may be held at Ashanti Naturals in Oxford or, depending on your group and location, I may be able to bring the experience to you.
​
A Little Something for You
Not ready to attend a group experience? You can still take a little time for yourself.
​
I've created a collection of short guided meditations you can listen to whenever you need a few quiet moments to slow down, reconnect and turn your attention inward.
​
You'll also find my monthly writings and reflections, along with affirmations, journal prompts, simple healing practices and other offerings I've created to support you along the way.
​
Consider it a little space you can return to whenever you need it.
