Classes

Meditation for modern minds

The essential skills of meditation, taught from simple to subtle across the course. Yoga Nidra, stillness, Trataka, Antar Mouna, and how to carry them into daily life.

What the course covers

Yoga Nidra: the classical Pratyahara technique that is also a doorway into meditation. Taught in depth over several weeks.

Stillness of the body: how to sit for meditation where the body itself is the object of meditation.

Antar mouna: inner silence, developing the skill of the witness/observer.

Om Chanting: Explore Mantra chanting as a form of dynamic meditation to expand self awareness.

Trataka: the practice of steady gazing to develop one-pointed concentration.

How to take these into daily life so meditation is not something you do on the cushion once a week.

“Yoga Nidra is the yoga of aware sleep. In this lies the secret of self healing. Yoga Nidra is a pratyahara technique in which the distractions of the mind are contained and the mind is relaxed.” Swami Satyananda Saraswati​​.​
