October 17, 2015

MEDIATION -not just a buzz word anymore. It’s real and it’s here and everyone is reaping the benefits. I did my first Vipassana retreat over ten years ago.  It was life changing.

Emily Fletcher, former Broadway performer (Chicago, The Producers, A Chorus Line, etc.) and founder and creator of zivaMIND, the world’s first online training program asks the real question:

How do we practice it and can it really help us achieve ultimate happiness in today’s chaotic, often hectic world?

With over 10 years of training (starting in India), Emily is one of the world’s leading experts in meditation, and her 8-day meditation program will quite literally change your brain. I am starting TODAY and cannot wait. Screen Shot 2015-10-17 at 5.29.14 PM

She has taught executives and team members alike at Google, Harvard Business School, Barclays Bank, Viacom and Coca Cola, not to mention celebrity clients like Jenna Dewan-Tatum (Actress and wife to the hunky Magic Mike star, Channing Tatum), Tony Award winner and Broadway star, Laura Benanti. Star of NCIS Los Angeles, Barrett Foa and the casts of many Broadway shows. She has been featured in The New York Times, Elle, Huff Post LIVE and Mind Body Green, and she’s only just getting started. Find out how zivaMIND is leveling the meditation playing field, causing too-busy-to-meditate people all over the world to stop and find a way to fit it into their schedules. Show your readers how zivaMIND is going to change their lives by decreasing stress, improving attention and memory, increasing immune function, and so much more.

One of the world’s leading experts in meditation, Emily Fletcher has heard all of the excuses in the world: I don’t have time to meditate. I don’t like to meditate. Meditation is stupid. Meditation doesn’t work for me. I can’t sit still for more than a few minutes. Meditation won’t make things any better for me. I suck at meditating. I can’t do it. I won’t do it. Leave me alone with your meditation scary talk!

If meditation were so ineffective, this 6000-year-old ancient practice would not have lasted through to this century. If meditation were so ineffective, The New York Times and Time Magazine would never have featured it on their covers in 2013 and 2014 respectively. And certainly, The Scientific American would not have devoted their entire November 2014 issue to the neuroscience of meditation. Their sub line? How [meditation] changes the brain, boosting focus and easing stress.

Because that’s what meditation does. Sure, you’ve heard it before. And maybe you have even tried it before. But the science is now making things clear as day.

Meditation: Lowers the stress hormone, cortisol, which causes (you guessed it) – stress!
Can relieve insomnia, or least improve sleep ability and quality.
Increases immune function.
Can reverse body aging (yes, this is scientifically proven).
Can help increase fertility.
Can lower heart rate and regulate blood pressure.
Can help people get in touch with their intuition, or as it’s known in science, with their second brain (yup, this is a real deal thing, y’all!)
Can improve decision-making.
Can improve relationships.
Can make sex better (oh, so much better!)
Is more effective at energizing people than caffeine is – by 10 times!
Why zivaMIND? What makes it different?

None of these meditation benefits are new, of course. Anyone with a regular practice can ascertain that all of that is true (yes, even those execs at Google and Coca Cola). But accessing meditation – good meditation – and scheduling it into our lives is what seems to be the issue.

According to Emily, there are a lot of meditation challenges online, which are great, but they don’t teach people how to meditate, much less how to do it in a way that suits their busy lives.

Further still, there is a lot of free stuff out there which any YouTube or Vimeo search will show you. Once again, it’s not really teaching you how to access the parts of meditation that lead to the benefits mentioned above (and – of course – so many more).

That is where Emily comes in; the key distinction that makes her different from any other meditation expert – zivaMIND. ZM is a 8 day online meditation training that walks practitioners through not only how to meditate, but also what can happen when you sit down to meditate:

Interruptions
Thoughts
Itchy nose, limbs, other body parts
Noisy mind that keeps telling you to stop
How to handle stress coming up and out
making it non- negotiable
Emily goes over all of the things that can happen to us when we meditate, and she gives us permission to be exactly where we are. She manages to make meditation entertaining which is no easy feat. You just can’t help loving her and wanting to spend time with her in the 20 minute daily videos. You’ll find yourself looking forward to your daily meditations, we swear!

Emily’s biggest goal?

To give you the tools to sustain yourself. Sure, you could attend one of her meditation retreats, which would no doubt deepen your practice. Sure, you could go to her NYC or LA studio for deeper practice as well. But now zivaMIND is making meditation accessible and attractive to everyone, anywhere in the world.

How it works:

There are two ways to take zivaMIND:

(1) zivaCUSTOM   – You choose your start date.

(2) zivaINTERACTIVE – this happens twice a year when hundreds of people sign up to do the 8-day course together as one class. In this way, people join the online forum group to get support and coaching. They also get access to calls with Emily as they go through the process. Because of the extra, live, support, this option is great for people who need accountability.

It’s time to do away with the excuses. It’s time to live better. It’s time to get zivaMINDED. Need a little bit more coaxing?

Got insomnia?
“I slept through the night for the 1st time in 20 years after taking the Ziva course,” says Hee Sun-woo, CEO of Hire Records.

Want to reverse the effects of aging?
“Learning Meditation with Emily is the single best gift I have ever given myself. I even look younger than a year ago!” says Melissa McVicker of Intel.

Think you suck at meditating and have given up?
“If you’ve ever tried meditation and ‘failed’, zivaMIND is your solution. zivaMIND gives people all over the world an easy way to learn a powerful meditation practice. I can’t think of someone better to teach this program. Emily makes meditation simple and practical,” says Dallas Travers,
Award winning author and business coach.

Think you’re too busy to meditate?
“A month ago I would have laughed at you if you had told me I’d be doing this twice a day, but here I am. It feels wonderful and I haven’t missed a single meditation. I am pretty shocked at how effortlessly I have been able to fit it into my life,” says Meg Wolf, Actress in American Horror Story.
Its time to give up the excuses and get reintroduced to the part that has been missing. The part that brings you your intuition, creativity, and ultimate success. Show your audience why zivaMIND and Emily is the key method to creating balance and euphoria in your life.
