Vedic Meditation is a simple, natural and effortless meditation technique that is practised sitting comfortably in a chair with your eyes closed for 20 minutes, twice a day.
There is no need to concentrate, control your thoughts or try to make your mind quiet. There are no beliefs to hold, prior knowledge or experience required. There are no recordings, downloads or apps needed. Through the use of a personal mantra, the mind settles beyond its usual thinking into quieter and subtler states of awareness. Naturally.
As the mind settles
Rest
As the mind settles, the body is able to experience deep rest. This rest allows accumulated stress, tension and fatigue to be released, helping us become more adaptable and resilient to the demands of everyday life.
Being
From the Vedic worldview, beneath the activity of our thoughts is a quieter state of Being — our natural state of inner contentedness. Vedic Meditation gives us a simple way to regularly experience this deeper part of ourselves.
Ease
Over time, what we experience in meditation begins to become more available outside meditation too: greater calm, clarity and presence, and a growing ability to meet life with less stress and more ease.
A sustainable practice
Vedic Meditation is a practical technique that allows the mind and body to do what they naturally know how to do — settle, rest and return to balance.
The heart of Vedic Meditation is creating a sustainable practice that helps people become less dependent on external ways of managing stress and more capable of accessing calm, clarity and stability from within.
