We’re really missing gathering together, but there is something about connecting virtually from the comfort of your home that enhances the relaxation response. We like to set up our meditation space at home with plants & flowers, a diffuser or candles, pillows & Flo cushions to create the ambiance, as it makes it feel extra cozy and like we’re really giving ourselves the time and space for self-care. Nature is incredibly healing, so bringing elements in that resemble earth, ...air, fire, and/or water can be soothing. On the other hand, the wonderful thing with meditation is that you really don’t need anything at all - just your present self.

Something about the season we’re in. We spent the day filming with #cbceastcoast for a new and exciting series. We talked entrepreneurship, adaptation during the pandemic, and how mindfulness and meditation is intertwined in our daily life. Thank you so much to @cf_photovideo, @byamygrace & @cbc_eastcoast for choosing to share our story during this extraordinary time. Now, more than ever, our community needs these tools as a way to cope, heal and feel joy for the simple thi...s in life. We’re all in this together! #cbceastcoast #docseries #pandemic #adaptability #change #mindfulness #meditation #entrepreneurship #novascotia #covid_19 #flomeditation

PAUSE. Take a deep breath in. & an even longer exhale. What are you experiencing right now? What do you see? What do you smell? What do you hear?... What do you taste? What do you feel? ^ A great check-in to bring mindfulness to your day. . . . Reminiscing about last weekends multisensory LightWater Flo session at @luminate_co.

Today we gathered for two different full sessions of LightWater Flo. We created time and space to slow down with ourselves, each other, the vibration of sound, and the smell of LightWater. It was a multi-sensory experience that invited us to go deeper, to see ourselves more clearly. @avtvmn guided us through meditation that focused on different physical, emotional, and energetic points in the body, with the intention of developing mindful awareness and alignment. @amandabaio...cco lead us through an incredibly purifying sound bath, while we received @lightwater_essentialoils to enhance our connection to the chakras. It was truly beautiful. We are so grateful to everyone who sat with us today, and the the gracious @luminate_co for hosting us in your private event space. Thank you, thank you, thank you! We have some very exciting plans to bring you more of your this pure goodness. Stay curious, dear friends! #luminateflo #meditation #multisensorymeditation #chakraalignment #togetherness #lovingkindness #soundbath #meditationexperience #soundbath #essentialoilmeditation #alignment #soundhealing #highvibes #connection #mindfulawareness #flomeditation

Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, take a moment to slow down. Breathe easy. Inhale and exhale. In life, things are constantly changing. Becoming and un-becoming. Shifting and evolving. Can you see how impermanent things are, in a calm and composed way? When we slow down our bodies and active conscious minds, we can find rest, wisdom, and deeper connections to self. With this practice, we begging to accept the ebb + flo of life. ... Sending out love and compassion today with an invitation to slow down. Join @dododza123 and @avtvmn for a free, Instagram LIVE ebb + flo class with @schoolofbecoming on Monday, November 23rd from 1:00-1:30PM AST. Come sit with us! #ebbandflo #impermanence #acceptance #breathe #guidedmeditation #freemeditation #meditationteacher #mindfulness #equanimity #calm #composed #ebbandflow #schoolofbecoming #flomeditation

Introducing Nurture: A composition to encompass our values as a mindfulness brand - awareness & connection, love & kindness, mindful activism & social justice. Our incredibly talented friend and graphic designer, @lizanecrna created this image, representing it all and we are honoured and humbled to share it with you. Elements in nature (flo)ra, the sun and moon are enveloped by human hands, reminding us of our responsibility and interconnectedness towards our surrounding...s and sustainability. We are part of nature and keepers of it. The composition also carries a secondary image of the hands forming an eye shape as a symbol of awareness. The practice of mindfulness teaches us to see the world more clearly, while understanding with respect and compassion, our place in it. We hope this composition acts as a reminder to see beauty in the present moment, nurture it, & embrace it with awareness and peace.

Mindfulness at Work: A recent study conducted by Mental Health Research Canada shows that prior to the pandemic, 1 in 5 Canadians say they have been diagnosed with an anxiety order or depression. Following the COVID-19 outbreak, high levels of anxiety have quadrupled, and depression has doubled. Across the country, these levels are highest in Nova Scotia. Today, we gave a keynote speech and lead a guided meditation for the Nova Scotia Career Development Association’s Virtual ...Conference, The Show on The Road. We spoke about the mental and financial cost of workplace stress, and how mindfulness and meditation is scientifically proven to help manage it. Thank you so much to NSCDA for including us, and to everyone who joined our session!
