FAQs...

If you're not sure, please feel free to contact me for a chat!
-
Do I need to be on Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)?
No, as we know that is not suitable for everyone. I can provide some advice on HRT and guide/signpost you to useful resources of inforation and support around suitable product or questions to ask your GP.
-
Do I need to speak to my GP before I join the programme?
Meditation is generally considered a safe practice, but it is vital that you inform me of any medical conditions or medication which might affect your session. All information is treated sensitively and in confidence. Medical conditions that may affect participation in class: Physical Injury including but not limited to: Head/Neck/Shoulder/Back/Knee/Spinal Injury; High/Low Blood Pressure; Seizures/Epilepsy; Asthma/Breathing Conditions; Mental Health Conditions including but not limited to: PTSD/Bi-Polar/Depression; Suicidal Feelings; Sensitivity to smell/essential oils.
Please take advice from a medical professional before participating in class if you have any of the conditions listed above.
Please note that certain medications may present a contraindication regarding the use of essential oils in class. Please notify me prior to starting class if you are on any medications so that I can check sensitivity and adjust the essential oils used as appropriate.
It is your responsibility to keep me up to date with any conditions you may have and advise me of any new conditions or complications.
-
Do I need to know how to meditate?
No, we will teach you how to meditate using teh X-Hail Meditation Method, which uses gentle movement; breathwork; self-led and guided meditation all to a background of modern music.
-
Do I need to be fit and flexible to do these sessions?
No, not really. You need to be able to get up and down from a meditation mat but you will not need to be able to bend yourself like a pretzel! Most of the sessions are seated on the mat or lying down during the meditation section. There is some gentle movement which you are encouraged to do but if it causes any pain and discomfort, you can simply sit/lie and just breathe.
-
Do I have to sit crossed legged or lotus position during meditation?
Definitely not, unless you want to! We encourage all participants to sit or lie in a position that is comfortable for them. If you are comfortable, then you will find it much easier to relax. Tension in the body leads to tension in the mind making meditation appear much more difficult. Sitting comfortably with the back supported is the ideal way to begin your meditation practice so you could sit in a high backed chair, lean against a wall, slouch on the couch - whatever works for YOU! Yes, there are spiritual benefits of a more traditional pose but it is much more important for those starting out to focus on not what meditation looks like but what it feels like. Sitting comfortably frees the mind to fall effortlessly into a settled state.
-
Do I need to sit still or in complete silence?
Asking anyone who currently has a unregulated nervous system due to chronic stress or trauma to sit still and quiet in a quiet room and actually enjoy it is just unfair. When the nervous system isn’t regulated we might be in fight or flight for example, which is a state that tells our entire being to mobilise, so asking ourselves or being told to be still could feel triggering, uncomfortable and extremely difficult leading, instead of relaxation to feelings of irritation, anxiousness and failure. We fill our sessions with rhythmic, repetitive movement sequences and easy, uncomplicated but tangible active breathwork to calm the nervous system first before we ask you to be still or scan your body or just be with your breath. We also provide a backdrop of modern music to provide a sense of familiarity because really who’s used to silence? Anything we’re not used to we have to build capacity to tolerate. Yes we do include moments of silence and stillness that increase in length over sessions but it doesn’t make sense to us that we expect you to do that straight away.
-
Do I need to be able to switch my mind off?
Please do not worry about not being able to switch your mind off duringyour meditation session. Part of your mindset reset involves recognising how busy your mind is, sitting with that space and doing what you can to calm it. As part of the session, you are taught techniques that help you relax the body and insodoing, calm the mind and soothe the soul.

How does X-Hail meditation differ from a yoga or mindfulness class?
X-Hail is nervous system regulation set to Ibiza chill out tunes or soul-empowering chart classics! With X-Hail the music is part of the medicine! It’s slow and steady but not still and silent so it’s great and SAFE for those with ADHD or even some of those processing "small-t" trauma. It’s as much of a spiritual experience as you want and allow it to be. There’s no dogma or doctrine but space to expand and connect to your guides, angels and ancestors and develop your intuitive gifts if you wish. If not space it’s for you to simply relax. It’s a multi-modality approach blending mindfulness; gentle rhythmic and repetitive usually seated, movement sequences; safe and gentle breathwork suitable for all; meditation techniques that even the most busy mind can engage with and actually enjoy! It’s a journey through from alpha to beta to theta brainwaves with no effort but all the benefits including a sense of calm, contentment, inner strength and confidence, creativity, and connection to others, your soul and your spirit team! It’s healing for mind AND the body - when we help retrain the nervous system we help boost our digestion, our immunity, and balance our hormone and blood sugar levels, plus we also heal the damage caused to the heart and brain function by stress!
