Experience deep peace with our guided meditation from the Stillness Project at Lindisfarne Anglican Grammar School. Begin by finding a comfortable position, focusing on your breath, and letting go of distractions. Use the ancient mantra "maranatha," meaning "come, Lord," to deepen your meditation practice. Breathe in "mara" and out "natha," allowing your thoughts to dissolve with each breath. If your mind wanders, simply return your focus to your breath and mantra. Join us on this journey into self-discovery and tranquility.

In the beginning…… “Be still, be very, very still, and above all else, do not wobble”
Sit quietly in a comfortable position with feet flat on ground, back straight and hands comfortably on knees either facing up or down. • Concentrate on your breathing, in and out and watch as it slows down. • Allow all thoughts, ideas, distractions to disappear with each breath, and when ready, begin to use the mantra. • If you ‘lose’ awareness of your breath or mantra, simply refocus on it, and begin again.
Mantra • The mantra ‘maranatha’ is the oldest Christian prayer (it means ‘come, Lord’), in Aramaic, the language of Jesus. • The mantra is said as two parts – ‘mara’ on the in breath and ‘natha’ on the out breath. This is said silently as the work of meditation is interior – the journey into self.
