the beginning
Becoming a teacher of Vedic meditation was for me a beautiful extension of my own personal practice.
I was one of the most enthusiastic practitioners of VM, handing out numbers of teachers to anyone that showed the slightest interest and following it up with reminders to call them. Have you learnt yet? What are you doing mate?? Basically giving people the same amount of push that I received from a good mate (absolute legend) who pushed me to commit to the same course of instruction years ago, while also being slightly careful to not become a full blown pest (apologies if I was a pest).
After about 8 years of doing this I received the next big push from a friend to start teaching it myself. Now getting to introduce people to this technique, knowing how much transformation and growth it has created for me, is the most rewarding thing I could ever imagine doing. This technique has been handed down through time, from its origins in Ancient India some 5000 years ago to be available to us all now. So to play a small role in peoples journeys of self enquiry and self development by passing on these ancient skills is something I am deeply grateful for.
Every time I get to teach this technique it re-inspires my own practice which is a huge gift in itself. To everyone that has granted me the pleasure of introducing them to this practice, and to the people that will in the future, i'm truly thankful for the experience!
