Hi! I'm Dr. Jill Wener. After 10+ years practicing Internal Medicine, I know first-hand what severe stress and burnout feel like. That all changed once I learned Conscious Health Meditation. Now, after 6 amazing years of growth as a meditator, I get to share this effortless, transformational practice with you- as a Conscious Health Meditation teacher and stress reduction expert. (You can read more about my journey on my bio page)

I specialize in teaching my clients, especially healthcare professionals and people with stress-related health issues, this simple, effortless and practical way to meditate.  Stay calm under pressure, manage stress, improve your health, and be more adaptive and creative.

Fear vs Intuition: How Can You Tell?
Fear vs Intuition: How Can You Tell?

Have you ever wondered why our FEAR voice (also called the inner critic, or ego) gets SO loud whenever we try to make a change in our lives? Have you ever gotten so inspired by something, only to be immediately flooded with your own negative thoughts and critiques about your idea, to the point that you just give up?

A Little Softening Goes a Long Way
A Little Softening Goes a Long Way

I’ve been thinking a lot about the pitfalls of rigidity recently. Strict adherence to a certain set of beliefs, or a certain pattern of behavior, without allowing anything else in. It keeps finding me, in conversations and in personal experiences. Since I started meditating 7 years ago, I was pretty much convinced that my particular type of meditation was the answer to all of life’s woes. There wasn’t anything that wouldn’t get better, eventually, with enough meditation. I appreciated that other people had practices that worked for them, but I secretly thought to myself that I had it all figured out, and they didn’t. ‘If only they practiced this type of meditation, they would…’

Zen and the Art of New Orleans Jazz Fest (or, Everything I Needed to Learn About Life, I Learned at Jazz Fest)
Zen and the Art of New Orleans Jazz Fest (or, Everything I Needed to Learn About Life, I Learned at Jazz Fest)

Jazz Fest in New Orleans. It’s my favorite place in the world, the highlight of my year. It’s not exactly what people think of when they think of spirituality, though. This year I brought a new friend with me, and I was telling someone, after the fact, that she was such a great Jazz Fest companion because not only was she awesome, but she was able to take care of herself so well. That prompted them to ask me: “what on earth happens there that she needs to take care of herself? Isn’t it supposed to be fun?”.

For you Princess Bride fans out there, Jazz Fest is like the fire swamp. Sure, there are obstacles, but once you figure them out (where to find air conditioning, how to find real toilets instead of porta-potties), you can live there quite happily for some time. Here are the top 9 life lessons I have learned at Jazz Fest:

This lovely human and I were classmates on meditation teacher training for 3 months in the foothills of the Himalayas in India. If that doesn’t make you family, I’m not sure what does. I’m damn glad his work trip brought him to the ATL this week. #family #vedicmeditation #colleagues #rishikesh #weareallonething #OTP
Just another day of fun filming with @fitfixnow!

No matter who we are, taking on a twice a day meditation practice can seem unfathomable (I’ve never had a student who thinks that will be easy or even possible). That is, until we actually learn a practice that is easy and almost instantly rewarding. Then, as this student of mine says, the time opens up. We realize how much time we spend hitting the snooze button, or on social media, or lost in the internet. We shift our priorities and find a way to fit it in no matter what. Because we can’t imagine life without it. #conscioushealthatl . . . . . #timehack #lifehack #makethetime #20minutestwiceaday #everyday #meditate
Wait a minute: aren’t meditation studios supposed to be full of cushions and crystals? Not this one! Sitting uncomfortably with our legs crossed and back straight takes a lot of effort and keeps us from fully relaxing into our meditative state. With Conscious Health Meditation, we maximize rest, comfort, effortlessness and bliss. Come try it! Our next course is July 26-29 in the #atl.

#Synchronicity. It’s everywhere, we’re just too busy being stressed to notice it. I went to Minneapolis to teach meditation this past weekend and my favorite band @therevivalists just *happened* to be playing at the most random music festival outside Minneapolis that same weekend. And I got to go see them with @pilatesunderground, who was with me when I heard them for the first time 5 years ago. #gratitude #conscioushealthatl . . . . . #musicfestival #serendipity #universe #meditation #conscioushealthmeditation #vedicmeditation #livemusic #mosquitofest
Traveling for work can be tough on health routines, but since I get to teach out of @pilatesunderground when I’m teaching in #Minneapolis, I get to work out *and* eat well. My go-to for healthy mpls eating? Amazing smoothies from @taonaturalfoods. Don’t worry we make time to drink wine and eat pizza too 🍏🍷🍕 #conscioushealthatl #lifechoices . . . . . #smoothies #organic #mpls #meditation #worktrip #naturalpeanutbutter #muscle

I had such a blast teaching these guys this week. Lots of laughter and a healthy dose of #irreverence and 4-letter words too 🙈! I’ve never seen a group support each other this much, and we were all sad to say goodbye at the end of the 4-part course last night. It never gets old seeing people’s faces light up when they realize that meditation is easy and fun, and that 20 minutes twice a day ain’t no thang. #conscioushealthatl . . . . . #meditation #20minutestwiceaday #learntomeditate #i❤️kwd #kboa #community #bliss @kirkwoodbiz
