With a blend & balance of both scientific inquiry and spiritual experience applied to everyday practice, Meditation & Yoga Nidra can take you into a deep inward journey of Stillness & Silence where all real things can reveal themselves.  

Meditation & Yoga Nidra are highly effective techniques for awakening into the deeper realms of wellbeing, wholeness, vitality, creativity and longevity. Practiced and experienced by the ancient Masters, Sages, Rishis and  Yogis before us, it still remains as efficacious and needed in today’s modern world more than ever before.

You’ll create a solid practice and learn to teach Meditation & Yoga Nidra  in a rewarding journey ahead.
