As of 9/21 Dineen is no longer using space at Meditate Madison.
We have new classes and events we are offering this month so be sure to take a peek at what is in store for you. We’ve also given our website and office an update as we bring our focus of Meditate Madison to one of “Your Path to Peace & Purpose.” Which path would you walk today? We’re ready to walk with you.

We kick the month off with our FREE Community Day on Saturday, September 7th!
Meditation, Crystal Singing Bowls and Energy Healing with Deb and Dineen– all FREE!
In reference to our theme, try asking yourself the questions below.
- Do I find myself becoming “stuck” in unhelpful ways of thinking and behaving?
- Do I need to let go of relationships that have shown themselves to be unhealthy?
- Do I feel disconnected in my body or ungrounded in general?
If you answer yes to any of the questions, you may benefit from working with grounding and balancing practices related to your Root Chakra.
What are the Chakras? In yoga, meditation & Ayurveda, this term refers to wheels or energy throughout the body. There are seven main chakras, which align the spine, starting from the base of the spine to the crown of the head. To visualize a chakra in the body, imagine a swirling wheel of energy where matter and consciousness meet. This invisible healing energy is vital life force, which keeps us vibrant, healthy, and alive.
The Root Chakra is located at the base of the spine. It governs the primal urges, food, sleep, sex, and self-preservation. Its energetic function is to help us maintain a sense of groundedness and inner stability.
We are here to help you find that stability. Here at Meditate Madison, that is our specialization. Be it through meditation, yoga, relaxation techniques, energy healing or coaching, we will help you transform your mind, body and spirit and be connected to the earth while knowing your inner strength.
You find this particularly with our two Saturday events, MeTime: Self-Care Saturday and our Self-Discovery Workshop. The Root Chakra will be our main focus.
Attend one of the varied classes and/or programs this month as we explore this focus of creating loving and peaceful thoughts for ourselves.
Below you will find our classes, workshops and other events for this month as well as the personal sessions available to you with Deb Phelps and Dineen Carta.
Personal sessions are the way you can have meditation, yoga, energy healing, or coaching on your own schedule. We still have open appointments, so be sure to schedule your initial appointment today by calling 608-216-2805, Extension 10 for Deb and Extension 11 for Dineen.
Be sure to check the online calendar in case of schedule changes. Please note that there is a 2-hour registration requirement for classes. Workshops and other events may vary. Attend the sessions of interest to you. If you miss one, it will most likely be repeated in the future. The sessions are open to anyone who is interested.

MeTime: Self-Care Saturday
with Deb Phelps
Root Chakra for September
We live in a world that is go, go, go. More places. More people. More work. When you are stretched too thin, spending time on yourself may seem like the lowest priority. And, when work tasks, family commitments and life in general pile up without a break, it can create a tornado of stress and anxiety. You will receive a bottle of essential oil to use to remind you to stay grounded.
