A Gentle Invitation to Begin (or Deepen) Your Meditation Practice

This 6-week meditation course is designed to help you build a calm, steady and sustainable meditation practice – whether you’re completely new to meditation or returning after a break.

Across six sessions we’ll explore a range of simple, time-tested techniques and give you the structure, support and encouragement you need to weave meditation into your daily life in a way that feels realistic and nourishing.

You’re welcome to attend in person at Yoga Wise Studio, join live via Zoom, or catch up with the class replay each week.

Who Is This Course For?

This course is for you if:

  • You’d like to start meditating but don’t know where to begin
  • You’ve tried meditation apps but struggle to stay consistent
  • You’d like support, structure and accountability
  • You already meditate but want to deepen or refresh your practice
  • You’re looking for gentle tools to support anxiety, overwhelm or poor sleep
  • You enjoy learning in a small, kind, community setting

No previous experience is needed. You will not be asked to sit for hours – just 5–10 minutes a day is enough to begin.

What We’ll Explore Together

Across the 6 weeks you’ll be introduced to a variety of meditation methods so you can discover what truly resonates with you.

Some of the practices we’ll explore include:

  • Mindfulness of Breathing
    Using the breath as a tool to steady and anchor the mind.
  • Antar Mouna
    Inner Silence
  • Heart Coherence
    Connectiong to the heartspace
  • Japa Mantra (with or without a mala)
    Using a Mala as a tactile support for concentration.
  • Loving-Kindness (Metta Bhavana)
    Cultivating warmth, compassion and friendliness towards yourself and others.

We’ll also explore:

  • How to set up comfortably for practice
  • Different seating options (chair, cushion, stool, etc.)
  • How to work with common obstacles (restlessness, sleepiness, busy mind)
  • How to build a realistic home practice that fits into your life

By the end of the course, you’ll have a toolkit of practices and a clearer sense of which approach suits you best.

How the Course Works

Each session will include:

  • A guided meditation practice
  • Gentle teachings on a specific theme or technique
  • Time for reflection, sharing and questions
  • Suggestions for home practice for the coming week

The first session (26 January) will be a 90-minute introductory session to give you a spacious foundation. The remaining five sessions will be 60 minutes.
