Meditation
Come out of your head and back into your body.
Life can be busy. Your mind can be even busier.
Meditation gives you somewhere to pause. A chance to step away from the lists, the noise and the constant doing, and simply be present for a while.
At Nu Energy Body Therapy, meditation is about more than sitting still and trying not to think.
Introducing Chi Embodiment Meditation
Chi Embodiment Meditation is my signature approach to meditation.
It brings together breath, body awareness, mindful movement, stillness, sensory awareness and energy awareness to create a practice that helps you reconnect with yourself.
The word Chi is traditionally associated with life energy. For me, it’s also about becoming more aware of the energy you have, how you experience it and where your attention goes.
Some sessions may be quiet and deeply still. Others may include gentle movement, breathwork, visualisation or a particular theme to explore.
There isn’t one right way to meditate. It’s about noticing, experiencing and being present in your own body.
You don’t need to…
- Empty your mind.
- Have meditation experience.
- Know how to sit properly.
- Be ‘good’ at meditation.
JUST COME AS YOU ARE.
What might we explore?
Every session is different.
Depending on the theme, your meditation may include:
- Breath awareness
- Body scanning
- Mindful movement
- Sensory awareness
- Guided meditation
- Visualisation
- Stillness
- Chakra or energy awareness
- Gratitude
- Relaxation and restorative practices
Sometimes we’ll explore a theme over several weeks, giving you the opportunity to become familiar with a practice rather than simply trying something once.
You can come along for a single session or make meditation part of your regular routine.
Sometimes, giving yourself permission to stop
is exactly what you need.
Influenced by many traditions. Grounded in the body.
My approach has grown from my experience with bodywork, Reiki, craniosacral therapy, Yin-inspired practices, guided meditation and other traditional meditation practices.
But the common thread is embodiment.
Rather than trying to escape the body or switch off the mind, we practise noticing what is happening right here, right now.
There is no particular belief system you need to follow. Just curiosity, an open mind and a willingness to notice.
A little space in your week
Wednesday evening meditation offers a regular opportunity to step away from the busyness of the day and give yourself some time to pause.
You might arrive feeling like your mind has 27 tabs open. You might simply need some quiet. Or you might be curious about what happens when you stop doing and start noticing.
Whatever brings you through the door, come as you are.
BREATHE. NOTICE. FEEL. BE HERE.
Come as you are. Leave with a little more space.
Join us for Wednesday evening meditation.

Do you have a whirring mind? One where the wheels are constantly spinning and all efforts to relax might take the edge off but don’t offer total relief? If so, you might want to try Meditation with Sharon at Nu Energy Body Therapy in Altona. I’ve tried meditation before, I have found it helpful to a greater or lesser degree but I have never found total relief and relaxation. Now, after seven weeks of meditation with Sharon at the Altona studio, I can conclusively say the impact on my whirring mind is remarkable. Meditation with Sharon gives you a full mind and body relaxation that is equivalent to the best sleep you’ve ever had and that keeps you refreshed for the days to come. If you want to break the whirring cycle and give your mind and body a rest and refresh, try meditation at Nu Energy Body Therapy in Altona.
