Find Your Inner Peace
with Meditation
Mindfulness and meditation are becoming more and more mainstream and although it has been practiced throughout the world for thousands of years, it is only recently that science has proven the overwhelming benefits associated with meditation. It is something that everyone would benefit from and my goal is to help people incorporate this practice into their life so they can reap these wonderful benefits too.
I have been meditating for over 10 years and since experiencing the benefits first hand it is now something that I just cannot go without. If I am not meditating regularly, I feel anxious, stressed, confused, irritable and have trouble sleeping. Meditation has improved my health drastically and I believe it is one of the main contributors to healing my chronic fatigue syndrome.
Meditation allows you to consciously choose your actions and create the life that you want rather than just thoughtlessly going through the motions. It helps you to quieten that inner critic that tells you that you (or what you are doing) are not good enough. It increases your resilience, ability to problem solve, focus and attention. There are many myths that prevent people from meditating and I want to assure you that everyone can meditate, it is just a matter of finding a practice that suits you and your life style.

I have done many guided meditations with Jess which are so grounding and leave you with a sense of peace and readiness for whatever life may throw at you.
I full-heartedly recommend working with Jess.
Jess’s guided meditations allow me to easily transition into a relaxed state and enter a peaceful realm where I can access and change beliefs. It is always a lovely journey in which I come back with more connection to my inner world and a greater appreciation for my life experience.
Being someone who enjoys and appreciates a good and well-contained guided meditation, and has experienced quite a bit of talented and true presence from guided meditation leaders, I haven’t met anyone who’s better than Jess Baker at spontaneously creating a guided meditation. Her view is wide and high up, but also so caring and careful at the level of right where you are, down to detail and allowing for all of the things that might need to come forward. If you have the opportunity to work with her, you should do so — her work promotes healing and personal growth in a beautiful way that is very much and deeply needed by us all.
I absolutely love Meditation classes with Jess. She is very experienced and knowledgeable.
Classes have great variety – but I always come away relaxed, calm…and sometimes too well rested (Hubby said I was snoring😴🤣)
Thank you Jess for sharing your wonderful gift with us.
I am deeply grateful to Jess for offering her knowledge and practices to myself and the world. What she offers is valuable and needed on this earth. Jess teaches meditation in a way that makes it easy to follow and drop in. These gentle practices can be great for all levels of meditation practitioners, from beginner to advanced. Her simple, soothing guidance allowed me to sink in to peaceful meditations, and when I emerged from the session, I felt I gained important insights into my life and my internal environment. What a valuable tool. Thank you Jess.
Why I meditate.
Every morning, before I allow myself to get lost in the business of the day, I will make some time to move, to stretch, and time to meditate. It’s not like I bound out of bed excited to do this, it does requires discipline. It requires me to shut off from the rest of...

I have recently begun guided breath/meditation classes with Jess and have found them to be so helpful, calming and inspirational. As a facilitator Jess radiates love, kindness and wisdom. Jess is very insightful and addresses many of the anxieties , stresses and fears that I face, showing me the pathway to learning to believe in myself. Jess is a beautiful, positive soul who emanates caring love, appreciation and compassion to all. I highly recommend her as a facilitator.
When I signed-up to the sessions with Jess, I was needing to increase my self-care, so thought this would be a good option. Any awkwardness that I felt coming into the online sessions, left as soon as I met and connected with Jess. With her guidance, I can gently place myself in the moment and focus my attentions on my breathing and slowing my mind. I have felt my love, compassion and Spirit flow to my loved ones and beyond. As a guide for these sessions, Jess is open and connects with everyone. She is gentle in her guidance, offers clear direction and helps remove participants preconceptions about their limitations. These sessions with Jess have provided so much more than self-care. I am more focused in my daily practices, with more insight into my thoughts and feelings. I have become more aware of how my actions and intentions affect my spirit and those around me. I am more understanding and compassionate towards others. I am so grateful to be a part of these guided mediation sessions. Thank you Jess
Since participating in the daily meditations, guided by Jess, I have developed an actual compassion towards myself. Through conversations with her, I have learnt to be kinder and gentler with myself.
When participating in meditations previously, I found it very challenging and I didn’t stick with it. No one told me it was hard and that sometimes just showing up is enough. It wasn’t until I restarted through Jess’s sessions, that I learnt all that you experience, good and bad is a part of it and that it’s normal. I am so thankful for what Jess has taught me. And I’m so appreciative of the opportunity to continue to learn more. Jess is such a knowledgeable, kind and compassionate teacher.
