The best part is: You can achieve it!
Hi there, I’m Emily, your dedicated Meditation Instructor at San Francisco Meditation.
I specialize in helping individuals manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and sleep issues. Additionally, I focus on addressing productivity challenges, maintaining focus, dietary concerns, and overall health and fitness goals.
My journey into becoming a meditation instructor really started because of some tough times I went through when I was younger.
Despite trying to keep up this image of having it all together, I was really struggling with some heavy feelings.
➔ Every night was a bit of a battle because I’d lie awake, thinking about everything from the day and worrying about what was coming tomorrow. Eventually, when I did manage to doze off, I’d often have these nightmares that left me feeling totally drained and jittery when I woke up.
➔ Dealing with all of that took up a big chunk of my day. I found myself avoiding conversations with family, friends, and even coworkers sometimes, just to steer clear of anything that might make me feel worse.
➔ All that stress and anxiety really took its toll on me. I’d either get super controlling or just shut down completely, which definitely wasn’t great for my relationships.
➔ And to top it all off, I started feeling like I didn’t deserve love or success. It got pretty dark, and I thought about maybe needing some medication to help me through it.
As time went on, I figured out how crucial it is to find happiness from within. That’s why I started exploring spirituality, especially meditation.
When I stumbled upon the self-reflection meditation method, it was like a lightbulb moment – instant relief and the hope of long-lasting happiness. I decided to give it a shot for a month, and I’m so glad I did!
Now, 15 years later, I’m bursting with happiness and gratitude. And you know what? I’m super excited to share this amazing journey with others and help them find their own path to lasting fulfillment.
Imagine what your life would be like if you could go from:
➔ Feeling anxious, and worried, to embracing a newfound sense of calmness, confidence, and resilience.
➔ Being overwhelmed by stress to feeling energized and full of vitality, approaching life with enthusiasm and vigor.
➔ Feeling drained all the time to feeling refreshed, with abundant energy to conquer daily tasks and activities with vigor.
➔ Wasting time feeling unproductive to having mental clarity and sharper focus empowering you to concentrate, solve problems and make decisions with ease.
Achieving this state of mind isn’t possible by magic, but it is possible when you have a solid meditation method, along with support and accountability to follow through.
And here’s the best part: That’s exactly what you receive when you join the meditation classes at the San Francisco Meditation Center.
But, don’t just take our word for it.
Here’s what our member Nicole had to say…
“Since starting meditation with this method and with Emily’s personalized guidance, I’ve seen significant improvements in my mental and physical health.
Although meditation apps provided temporary relief, they never led to the deep changes I needed. I used to struggle with negative thoughts about my classmates, boyfriend, and family, which left me emotionally and physically drained.
After my very first meditation class, I felt a huge weight lifted off my chest, and it has only gotten better. Over the past year of regular meditation, I’ve realized the power of my mind. It can either be a tool I harness or something that controls me. I’ve only been sick once when I stopped meditating briefly, which shows the impact of this practice on my well-being. I’m excited to continue growing stronger and happier.”
