Basic Meditation Courses

The basic course is suitable for beginners as well as meditators who wish to gain a clearer understanding of how meditation works.

During the course you learn various meditation techniques which can be used during the day to keep you in balance. You'll also learn meditations which encourage you to relax deeply.

You work with the meditations that appeal to you and they can all be easily tailored to meet your own needs. Feel free to peruse a synopsis of the course aims.

The course includes:

The Basic course is run in both four and six week formats. The courses cover the same material, however, in the six week course we introduce several techniques which we don't have time to cover in the four week course.

Intermediate Meditation Course

The intermediate course is designed to deepen your practice. It draws on and reinforces materials covered in the basic course, introduces you to additional techniques, encourages you to become proficient with longer meditations, and aims to free you from dependence upon a teacher or guide.

We explore the skills of meditation in greater depth and look at more advanced aspects of meditation such as stillness, awareness and insight.

The course is customised for attendees too - so if you have a particular interest in meditation for health, creativity or personal development, for example, we'll go into that in greater depth than is possible on the basic course.

The Intermediate Course is held just once a year (at our Clifton Hill venue) usually around October.

Learn How to Meditate Workshops

These workshops are condensed forms of the Basic Meditation Course. They're designed as an introduction to meditation and will help you get started with a range of simple techniques. They are particularly suitable if you can't come to regular classes, if the next term is too far away, or if you just want to get a taste of what meditation is before committing to a full course. They're also a useful refresher for students who have completed a course already.

Workplace Meditation

Stress in the workplace often contributes to sick leave, accidents and low productivity. Conversely, the ability to relax rapidly whenever possible can improve work relationships, job satisfaction and efficiency.

Employees find that simple relaxation strategies are easy to learn and to apply during the day.

Consultations

Private consultations are useful:

If you can’t attend courses for whatever reason, usually two or three consultations with a follow-up are enough to get you started. If you want coaching, a few fortnightly or monthly sessions are ideal.

If you don't live in Melbourne, you can also arrange for phone or email consultations (phone is best).

Consultations are of one hour's duration and the cost for an individual session is $80 (plus travel surcharge if required).
