Quiet Mind Meditation

Quiet Mind Meditation Sarah is a meditation teacher based in Melbourne (Australia) and Founder of Quiet Mind Meditation (2009) and The Meditation Box (2022) Life is busy. And noisy.

After a long and challenging corporate career that came to a crossroad following the Global Financial Crisis .. Sarah took herself off to a meditation retreat and realised it was time to share her passion for meditation (her secret weapon in life) through Quiet Mind Meditation. Having meditated for more than 20+ years, Sarah is well aware of the challenges that life can present, and is eternally grateful that she learnt to meditate as a teenager .. and continued to meditate through all the ups and downs and meanderings. We are constantly bombarded with information .. words, thoughts, sights, sounds, smells .. that cause us to live in a state of perpetual edginess with no time to processes everything. But when we live on 'fast-forward' we miss the moments we have right now, and this can leave us with a residue of something missing. We disconnect from life and our sense of self. The ability to be both extremely relaxed physically and mentally, while remaining alert and awake, is one way to describe the meditative state. Research clearly shows that a regular meditation practice teaches us how to self manage our stress, which positively influences our inner biochemistry; improving our physical and emotional health, providing more restful sleep and improved energy levels alongside increased ability to cultivate positive emotions and a deeper understanding of who we are in our quietest moments.

Learning to meditate is like planting a tree. Each day you tend to it with gentle presence and care, and over time it grows into a steady, protective presence ... offering shelter, insight, and quiet resilience.

We start Exploring Meditation .. our 40 day email/audio journey to cultivate a personal meditation practice ..

Monday 13th October

Weekends do have a different vibe.

It’s a thing.

I let myself sleep in this morning so the light and sounds were different .. my meditation had a completely different energy, as did our morning beach walk.

It’s good to mix-it-up.

When you have a morning ritual - like meditation and a mindful walk - you consistently tap into the vibe of the season, and begin to notice how it influences your mood, and your thinking …

Do you have a morning ritual?

Life won’t ever stop being busy … the world keeps turning, the demands keep coming.

But meditation offers a way to steady yourself in the midst of it all.

Just 10 minutes a day can:

✨ ground you when life feels unsteady
✨ give you a safe harbour from the noise and busyness
✨ help you return to daily life with more clarity and ease

We all need an anchor … something reliable, something that brings us back to ourselves.

For me, that anchor is my meditation practice. And that’s exactly what I want to share with you, in the Exploring Meditation program - how to make meditation your own anchor.

Over 40 days, I’ll guide you through simple, doable practices … blending traditional wisdom and modern science … so you can find your centre, no matter what the weather of the world brings.

We start again on 13th October.

Imagine where you could be in 40 days if you began NOW!

Today’s reflection.

There is a grace in pausing 
a tender permission we offer ourselves
to rest in stillness,
without guilt, without grasping.

To feel cocooned in our own quiet presence,
letting the world fall away 
not in avoidance,
but in peace,
the kind that begins within.

And when we hold that peace within,
we carry the quiet power
to bring it gently into the world.

🙏🏼

My daily meditation practice always brings beautiful moments of reflection …

Learn to meditate with me.

On MONDAY 13th Oct we begin our next Exploring Meditation course and we begin with The Grace Period, a gentle invitation to pause, find your space, your posture, and your heartfelt intention for this journey inward.

Have you wished you could switch off your busy mind at night … and actually rest?

Ever experience racing thoughts. Tossing and turning. Body tired by a mind that won’t quit?

Meditation teaches your nervous system how to soften into stillness - and that’s where real rest begins.

And, meditation doesn’t have to take hours.

Just a few minutes of daily practice can:

✨ quiet racing thoughts
✨ calm the nervous system for deeper sleep
✨ help you let go of the day and soften into rest

That’s another reason why I created the Exploring Meditation program.

Over 40 days, I’ll guide you through simple, doable practices … blending traditional wisdom and modern science … so you can discover the meditation style that truly works for you.

We start again on 13th October.

Imagine where you could be in 40 days if you began today. 🌙

I’m running the next Exploring Meditation course starting - Mon. 13th October.

This is a 40-day Learn to Meditate course, based on my own meditation journey of 30+ years, AND designed to help you find a practice that suits YOU!

Every morning (at 6am) you’ll receive a daily email with thoughts and instructions, and a Guided Meditation to guide your practice.

We start with just a few minutes each day, and gently build our understanding and the time we spend in practice - 5 to 30 minutes.

We explore the world of meditation through the lens of Mindfulness and Mantra, with shorter Meditative Exercises for daily stress management, and longer seated practices for deeper connection and inner stillness.

Before we begin … you’ll also receive our Starter Pack guide … to help you get settled and begin setting a strong foundation to start.

Everyone can learn to meditate .. and experience some of the benefits of a regular practice, and enjoy it!

We begin Monday 13th October.

“The obstacle in the path becomes the path.” - Marcus Aurelius

This morning my meditation was interrupted by an unexpected challenge.

At first, I felt frustrated … but I remembered these Stoic words.

Obstacles aren’t detours, they are the practice!

Rather than resisting or complaining, the invitation is to pause, meet what arises, and then return … a little steadier, a little stronger.

Just like a pearl forms from the irritation of sand, each challenge can polish and deepen our path.

Waking to the soft pink of dawn, with the first hint of blue sky, it felt so luxurious to set out for a leisurely morning walk today
. a quiet celebration of the weekend!

Spring brings such vibrant colours, sights and smells .. a little magic and wonder for the world around us.

See my favourite snaps from this morning!

What if … you could press pause on the noise and overwhelm, and actually feel calm in the middle of your busy day … or whenever you need it most?

Meditation doesn’t have to take hours.

Just a few minutes of daily practice can:

✨ lower stress in a big way
✨ reset your nervous system
✨ bring you back to centre (even when life feels chaotic)

That’s why I created the Exploring Meditation program.

Over 40 days, I’ll guide you through simple, doable practices … blending traditional wisdom and modern science … so you can discover the meditation style that truly works for you.

We start again on 13th October.

Imagine where you could be in 40 days if you began today.

“And in the spring I shed my skin, and it blows away with the changing winds.” 🎶

☀️ Florence + The Machine capturing that wild, transformative energy of Spring so perfectly … reminding us that this is the season to let go, breathe, and reawaken.

How?

In meditation, we can notice what’s ready to fall away and what’s emerging, flowing with the rhythms of the season.

🌱

This weekend has been so wild … and playful and loud and beautifully warm.

I took my meals outside, my coffee and book .. and a little Qigong movement on the grass.

Find some meditative stillness and mindful movement practices?

And … find a practice that actually resonates with you?
