Hi, my name is Ava and I’m delighted to offer you “Functional Spirituality”, a free resource of talks, trainings and guided meditations. I use an academic approach to invite critical thinking into energetic, mystical and heart-based practices. Spirituality has a history of disempowering the individual and worshiping the guru or priest, without question. In this podcast, I aim to reduce the dogma that has rendered so many schools and practices ineffective - (and strange AF) - and to elevate the conversation around spirituality. I want to EMPOWER the meditator and yogi, to place the power back in our hands, to live directly from our own experience. I hope you enjoy!

Guided meditation: R.A.I.N. technique

Monday Oct 18, 2021
The acronym R.A.I.N. is a helpful mindfulness too. It can be a great tool for those times when you are caught up in a story or emotional overload, which can happen naturally when feeling overwhelmed or overly critical, and consumed with anxiety, fear or uncertainty.
You can use RAIN in a difficult moment to cultivate a deeper connection and direct experience with the world.
