What is Vedic Meditation?

IF YOU CAN THINK, YOU CAN PRACTICE VEDIC MEDITATION.

It really is that simple.

With Vedic Meditation, thoughts come and go as we gently repeat a mantra.

This effortless technique comes from teachings found in the Vedas, an ancient body of knowledge from India considered to be the world’s oldest sacred texts. Although its origins date back 5,000 years, it feels amazingly modern.

Vedic Meditation is meant for people with jobs, families and all kinds of busy-ness. It’s portable. No app or incense required. You can do it on planes, in trains, even in the car (passengers only, please).

Noise? No problem. You can successfully meditate with dogs barking, drills drilling, pipers piping … you get the idea.

Vedic Meditation is a bliss technique that allows you to rest at a profoundly deep level. When this happens, stresses stored in the body begin to unwind, leading to feelings of greater calm and clarity both in and out of meditation. (See additional benefits below).  All that’s required is sitting comfortably with the eyes closed and repeating a mantra or sound twice a day for 20 minutes.

I know. That’s 40 minutes a day. A serious commitment. But consider this: How much time do you spend every day checking email, getting sucked into social media or just stressing out?

There’s a better way, friends.

*For real. Although formal research is yet to be conducted, as a consistent meditator, nine times out of 10 I’m able to snag a great spot. The Trader Joe’s parking lot does not lie.
