TO BE AN EFFECTIVE MEDITATION TEACHER, YOU MUST FIRST BE AN EFFECTIVE MEDITATOR
This is a unique 10 month 150 hour in-depth and comprehensive training program. The core 150 contact hours provide an experiential exploration of meditation, mysticism, philosophy and spiritual lifestyle training.

You will grow in the type of the meditation practice that is right for you, and learn how to help others find the practice that is right for them.
Simply put, meditation is the art of stilling our mental and emotional turbulence, with the aim to raise our vibration and live in a state of higher consciousness. In its simplest application meditation can be used for relaxation and stress reduction, and bring us to an awareness of the important interconnection between our minds and bodies. Meditation can help us manage our physical and emotional pain and give us a tool to use to cope with the apparent disharmony in our lives. At a deeper level, meditation can help us to release our emotional blockages. It can help us to face and work through our pain, and bring healing to the heart and body. This healing allows us to open the heart and integrate our spiritual nature with our mind, our emotions and our body. When our mind and emotions are balanced and harmonized, then we have access to our true inner spiritual nature. We begin to have a healthy appreciation for our life and the lives of others. Our world is seen through new eyes, and we can start to perceive the interconnection and interdependence of all creation.
