It has been life changing for me in all senses of the word. I have become a new person, and from what I am told my friends and family a much better and mature one. It has put me more in control of my life, I was going through some unexpected changes and didn’t know where to turn. I discovered Vedic Meditation and it gave me back my focus and control. On top of that I became happier, more in tune with my feelings and other peoples. Much less stressed, less tired feelings, stopped drinking coffee, I lost weight, I can take lifes hiccups in my stride rather than flipping out all over the place like before. I have also chosen some new career paths since meditating so it opened up parts of my mind that were not there before and put me on a new more positive path. Total game changer and I am still getting started!

Firstly, what makes this form of meditation so great is that it's so easy to do and I cannot imagine anyone not being able to get the hang of it. My interest in Vedic meditation is to help me develop my intuitive side and to help my teenaged daughter, who is on the autistic spectrum, to relax and so to lessen her symptoms such as sensory overload and to make processing information easier. The most motivating thing of all is just how quickly results can be seen. I had a very difficult decision to make and, after about two weeks, I was able to see things in a different way and my clarity of vision had changed to allow me to see things more clearly and I am pleased to say that in the next few weeks I was able to make my decision. As for my daughter, she is beginning to be more relaxed and her communication has certainly improved. My teacher was Jess and I cannot praise and thank her enough for her positive encouragement and input and she is inspirational in the way she delivers the course. Thank you so much Jess.

I was suffering from severe stress and anxiety for the past four years due to problems work and an unhealthy relationship. I couldn't enjoy my weekends or holidays for a while and after a friend saw how negative I had been, she recommended taking the Vedic Meditation course with Will and Jess. I was so impressed with the intro talk alone that the confidence in me flourished...so much so that I excelled in an interview and got a job I had really wanted.....and that was before the course. The course was a revelation and I have been close to stress free and am enjoying my life so much more now as my negativity has turned to positivity in less than three weeks and everyone close to me has noticed the difference the change in my behaviour. This course is definitely worth it and Jess is an amazing teacher. I have been attending group meditations and have met so many lovely people. All you need is 40 minutes of your day to enjoy this great feeling. I can't recommend it highly enough.

I was recommended this beginners course from a dear friend and to say I have been delighted is a complete understatement! I have tried some meditation previously with very little success and just presumed that I 'couldn't do it’ and tat it was a bit hippy and not for me, but the techniques which you have shared with me have been transformational and I feel so excited at the possibilities and where it's going to take me in so many areas. The delivery of the whole 3 days was exquisite and Jess was a delight to have as a teacher. She is clearly a beautiful soul both inside and out and her whole way of teaching, her sense of humour and her wonderful language made the days pass by at an exceptional speed and was a fabulous introduction and grounding to this new technique which I have now learnt and feel confident in. I cannot recommend this course highly enough for anyone who has (or even hasn’t) tried meditation previously - without all the patient additional help which Jess gave us, I'm not sure how anyone could feel confident doing this just from using a mobile app or reading a few books! It truly is an experiential course and a wonderful journey and I look forward to it being just the start of many daily meditations for me to begin on my pathway towards a much more stress free and relaxing life.

"It's amazing how your life changes when you embrace the reality that you are better than the life you have settled for" (S.M). I do not have enough words to explain how much I have gained from these 8 hours of beginner course. It's impossible to explain unless you try it. Life-changing? Yes, life changing, that's the only reductive adjective that can partially describe this intense 8 hours. It's just not a matter of starting to change the way you live the busy life our society pushes us to do, that is just a consequence, that is just brain. It's a matter of changing the way you see (brighter), you feel (stronger and more intense), you smell, you touch, you perceive the world around you. You suddenly realize that everything was already around you but you were blind, deft, your senses neurologically impaired to realize that you were just missing the true sense of life. And once you know that, you are able to let it go, to leave, nothing is going to be taken or stolen if that is for you, you can surrender, trust and open yourself without the risk of being stolen, ignored or left alone. That is relief. We do not need to keep everything close to us, we do not need to stop breathing to go faster, we do not need to pay attention to all those small things we thought were crucial for our life but actually are useless and meaningless, as the true ourself is just inside us and it reflects its image in all the things we touch, we see, we smell. This is why, I believe, I am now starting to see how my life was intoxicated by stress and all around me appeared to be dark, grey, ruined. I am starting to make myself bright from inside and things around are turning into a brilliant color as a response, it was all inside me. That hot feeling around my heart after every meditation, that healing process is starting to take place. My heart was close, no way to get in touch with it. And this is just the beginning, the way is long but step by step will reach the mountain. Thank you Jess, as your eyes sparkling and becoming full of true tears when telling us the story of the prisoner feeling for the first time someone was trusting him, have been the most real, genuine and loving act you could give us. We are all prisoners, all locked, all scared, we have all forgotten what trusting means, and for the first time I realized that you have been able to give us the tools we need to re-start believing we deserve peace. We now have them and we are prepare to not judge and just have faith in ourselves.

Firstly, thank you so much for having me. I really loved it and it surpassed all my expectations. I know I'm probably still in the honeymoon phase when it's all new and exciting and, to be honest, I'm a bit scared of acknowledging any benefits in case it doesn't last but here goes... I've found the meditations really soothing and I actually look forward to them. I've done one on a crowded train, a couple on a park bench and I've now got in the habit of meditating in the car before walking my dog in the morning which I love because usually I'm meeting someone to walk with so its just a nice calm time beforehand. I have missed a couple of evening ones just because time has run out. I find it incredibly comforting having this new tool to combat my anxiety and (sometimes quite obsessive) repetitive barrage of negative thoughts. I still struggle with letting them spiral but I feel it's making me calmer on the inside. I was hoping it would make me less inclined to reach for the wine bottle in the evening but that hasn't happened yet! A wonderful side effect (which I could have worked out for myself but never did) was going to bed earlier. I can find evenings at home terribly unsettling and pace the house trying, and rarely succeeding, to find something to make me relax and I now realise that I can just go to bed! It felt like the evening was a sort of marathon I had to get through and now I understand that 10.30pm is a perfectly reasonable time to go to bed and read my book. The thing I also love about meditating with a mantra is that it feels in a weird way like a sort of brain massage. The word just becomes a rhythm and it feels like the opposite of a headache - a sensation in your head but a nice one.

The thing I love about this type of meditation is how much it improves my concentration, it makes my work so much easier!

I hadn’t really considered meditation in the past as I always thought that I was a bit too manic and found it difficult to switch off – I just wasn’t very Zen. Thankfully, my wife had been on the course with Will and Jess and convinced me to give it a go and I couldn’t be more grateful that she did. Meditating has really helped me to take control of my life and focus on what is important to me. I feel much more like I can deal with whatever the world throws at me and I haven’t lost any of my passion but I have become more controlled and considered in my reactions to problems. At the risk of sounding terribly corny, thanks to my wife, Will and Jess for introducing me to Vedic meditation, it is simply put, awesome.
