Frequently Asked Questions

The word "mantra" comes from Sanskrit: "manas" means mind, and "tra" means vehicle. In Vedic Meditation, the mantra acts like a gentle vehicle that allows the mind to move effortlessly inward, naturally settling into deeper, more restful states.
The mantra you'll receive is a simple sound, it doesn’t have a meaning or association. It's carefully selected to support an easy, effortless meditation experience.
Receiving a personal mantra, along with proper instruction, is what makes Vedic Meditation so powerful. It ensures you have a strong foundation, helping you deepen and evolve your practice over time.

There's no concentrating, no clearing the mind, and no effort required. Even the most active minds can practice it successfully.

Absolutely. Vedic Meditation is a lifelong tool that helps reduce stress, improve health, and enhance overall quality of life. Many students find that the benefits such as better sleep, reduced anxiety, increased productivity far outweigh the initial investment.

After completing the course, I offer free ongoing support through weekly Group Meditations. You’re also welcome to re-sit the course with me, or with one of my accredited colleagues, anytime at no extra cost.
