Course Overview

Find Stillness and Relaxation Inside Yourself

Meditation is an inward journey. It’s also a systematic process.

Join Rolf Sovik in this short workshop as he explains and guides you through each step, bringing together the two main themes of meditation: mindfulness, or the ability to observe yourself, and concentration, the ability to rest your mind in its focus. With these meditation essentials, you will have the tools you need to discover your own inner sanctuary.

When meditation is mastered, the mind is unwavering like the flame of a candle in a windless place.

— Bhagavad Gita

In five easy steps, explore and experience how to:

  • Prepare the body and mind for meditation and choose a sitting posture that’s right for you

  • Practice smooth, relaxed breathing, and awareness of the flow of the breath

  • Use a simple mantra as a focus and resting place for the mind

  • Observe yourself and the thoughts that arise as you meditate
