As we move from spring into the fullness of summer, there is a natural sense of openness and abundance that supports a return to ourselves and a deeper sense of inner steadiness.
Through meditation, we begin to meet each day from a foundation of inner balance - rather than being pulled by stress, busyness, or overwhelm.
Vedic Meditation is a simple, effortless technique that comes from an ancient tradition of India, passed down through generations of teachers. It is practiced sitting comfortably with the eyes closed, allowing the mind to settle inward beyond thought into a state of deep rest. This rest is often more profound than sleep, helping to release accumulated stress and restore the nervous system.
As stress dissolves, clarity, creativity, and energy naturally increase. We become more adaptable, more present, and more at ease in daily life.
This offering, in collaboration with Spiral Mirror, will take place between the Summer Solstice and the full moon - an auspicious window, especially supportive for this kind of inner work.
This course is designed to give you a personal meditation practice you can carry with you for life, while being supported in a small group setting.

Personal instruction in the Vedic Meditation technique
