tuja wellness Meditation Challenge Off to a Zen-spirational Start

BANFF, Alberta - Feb. 4, 2014 - PRLog -- Canadian health and wellness website tuja wellness kicked off its 30-Day Meditation Challenge on Monday but the registrations just kept pouring in, totalling more than 2700 by the end of the second day.

“The number participants is really starting to grow simply by word of mouth,” says Challenge coordinator, Niki Boileau, adding “We're finding that one person will start the challenge, enjoy the process and then encourages their friends and family to hop onboard. That's the best possible outcome because if you have a support system set up around you, there's a better chance you'll stick with it.” The fact that the Challenge is completely free to join may also be playing into its popularity.

Each day of tuja’s 30-Day Meditation Challenge, participant receive an email with a recorded guided meditation. The challenge eases meditators in with 5 minute recordings so it’s perfect for first timers. By the end of the 30 days, challengers will be settling into 20 minute daily meditations. It’s all part of helping to make meditation a habit. As Boileau explains, “we want to help ease people in, answer their questions and help them make it a sustainable practice.”

“We are so happy that people are taking the time to slow down and embracing this new practice,” says Boileau. “If you're still thinking about signing up, we definitely encourage you to join. Once you're part of the meditation challenge you will have access to all of the 30 guided meditations - which you can do anywhere, anytime,” she adds with enthusiasm.

In a time when worry and stress seems to be the daily M.O. it’s no surprise that people are looking for ways to find calm. Scientific studies back this ancient practice as stress-reducing and the tuja 30-Day Meditation Challenge makes it fun, accessible and easy.
