I used to practice Vipassana meditation and I whilst I loved it, I needed to find something that I could more easily integrate into my life. Will has given me a totally different approach of what meditation can be and provided me with this amazing new tool that allows me to tune into myself easily and without strain. I must say I am truly grateful to Will and Jess for having woken up and expanded all this inner knowledge, it has helped me to become more connected with myself and with those around me. Will is a truly dedicated teacher who is always there for you once the course has finished and he is such an inspiring person.

Learning Vedic meditation has had a profound impact on my life, health and wellbeing. I'm calmer, less stressed and my digestive issues have disappeared. I'm also more productive, inspired and creative in the work I do, which has helped me enormously with setting up my own business. Less rattled by the events that life throws at me, life is somewhat smoother and a lot brighter! Although I saw some of the benefits soon after learning to meditate, a year on from learning, I feel the magic really happens when you deepen into your daily practice. Attending the meditation retreats and Vedic knowledge courses with Will has therefore been particularly beneficial and enjoyable, as well as providing a wonderful opportunity to share the experience with others. I'd encourage anyone to learn to meditate given the wide reaching benefits, many substantiated by scientific medical research. Several friends have learnt with Will since observing the changes they've seen in me as a result, so if you're thinking about it, 100% give it a go!

It has been an absolute pleasure to learn this technique. and put it into practice. I have been getting more and more into it, and the benefits are just amazing. Part of me feels it must be psychosomatic, but I feel better. so MUCH better, that it can't be simply that. I really cannot explain, except that I feel the transformation in my body, and my soul. I am not skeptical, I am simply surprised that I feel so good so fast. Will, you are a fantastic, truly fantastic teacher. You transpire the absolute balance between passion for the technique and its effects, with openness and knowledge that is absolutely phenomenal. I truly cannot explain this, but whatever it is, it is absolutely incredible.

I attended a 4 session course in April, and my objectives were to become a bit more relaxed and to improve my sleep problems, which were considerable. Will teaches the meditation in a way that is really straight forward to follow and I have completed the morning & evening meditations probably 99% of times over the 6 months since. I never would have guessed that I would keep it up so diligently but I have to admit I really rather love it! After about 2 months it dawned on me that I had been sleeping so much better, bit by bit, every week it had been getting better. Now I get a good 7 hours sleep most nights, only waking for a very short period probably once a night. I have even found the light mornings of summertime don't worry me now, as they used to, which is such a relief. I am also much more relaxed. In the past I tried mindfulness meditation, but I found trying to keep my mind clear of thoughts was impossible and it led me to feelings of failure & a longing for the session to be over. It nearly put me off meditation completely but I thought I'd give it one more go and chanced upon Will's site. I have found that Vedic meditation is much easier to practice and I actually look forward to the 20 minutes morning & evening and see them as one of the highlights of my day. The group meditations that you have access to after you have learned are amazing. It's difficult to articulate the relaxation & satisfaction that comes every time you do one. I look on the meditation from a scientific point of view and not a spiritual one, and I have been really pleased with the results so far and I actually cannot wait to take it to the next level on a retreat, I am really intrigued by how good this is!

I'm loving the meditation and amazed at the impact it's had on me. All the old anxieties have just melted away - I feel like I'm functioning in a completely different space. I can feel a change in my yoga teaching, yoga practise and especially how I'm engaging and (most importantly) responding to others. I feel like my life is in a true state of flow - it has been quite profound I must say.

I'd had IBS for about 7 years, which was getting progressively worse as time went on before I met Will. I went to one of his introductory talks and he said that the meditation he taught could not only cure IBS, but had a whole host of other awesome benefits. Just being in the same room made my stomach feel better (which was hurting at the time!) so I thought I'd take a chance. It's been about 4 months since I started meditating using the technique Will taught me and I've had 1 tummy upset because I ate something bad. Anyone who suffers from IBS will understand what a miracle that is! My morning poo is one of my favourite times of day. I've never been so regular in my life and it's awesome!! No more trapped wind, bloatedness, cramps....it's magic. I had always considered myself a pretty chilled person, but there is a lot of background stress in life that I had never really noticed consciously, but was having a massive effect on my everyday life. Meditation make me feel like MC Hammer 'stress can't touch this!' Will and his partner Jess are awesome. The follow up support they give after the course has been great. They genuinely seem to care how you're getting on and if there is anything else they can help with and you can ask them any questions you have anytime. The free group meditation sessions are also really great because you can meet up with other people in the same boat and share experiences. I highly recommend it!!

I am 21 years old and I recently completed a Business and Management degree at the University of Exeter. Like the majority of my friends around my age, I was very unsure about the next stages in my life and was very lost. Having worked in the Financial sector during internships and starting my own company at University I still found no purpose of where I wanted to progress in life, only knowing I was determined to be highly successful and make a difference. I took this course to help me focus my mind on what I want in life. After just over 1 month, my life has totally transformed; I know where I want to go and have truly realised the extreme benefits of meditation after this short period of time. I am more focused and I feel a lot calmed, where I am worrying less and less about matters which really are not worth worrying about. This epic transformation I have experienced has been the best thing I have ever undergone. This has triggered a passion for the subject where I am constantly reading about Vedic meditation and the history behind it (which I must say has been much more fulfilling than just watching TED talks, biographies, and books such as "speed reading techniques; all of these offered techniques of improvement, yet only made me more stressed by having extra things on my to do list to complete). Will is an incredible teacher and is most definitely the most wise person I have met in my life (apologies to my lecturers). He has opened an entirely new world to me and actually cares about my personal progression. I must admit when I read the description and spoke to Will before I started the course I was highly dubious that it was just another classic sales pitch, trust me, it is not. 4 months ago a great friend of mine said I should try meditation to which my reply was "sorry mate, it just doesn't work for me". I now realise how naive that comment was, I hope as the reader, you truly understand the normality of meditation and the true benefits that are available.

I met Will Williams in January 2014 having learned in Sydney a year previously. I was looking for a Vedic meditation group I could join for group meditations. I was immediately impressed by Will's friendly approach and his obvious passion for all things meditation. He is such an open and charming fellow and it seemed the whole group was getting on with him famously, myself included. It transpired he'd actually trained alongside my teacher from Sydney. Having seen first hand the positive difference the Vedic meditation had made on my life, my wife was very curious about it, but she was worried about he she would fit it in with lookng after two young children. But as soon as she met Will and he talked her through some of the strategies for doing it as a young mother, she opted to take the course. She greatly enjoyed it and her meditation practice has made a huge difference to her and to our family life in general. She is much more calm and balanced, and now there are two of us feeling this way, our kids get to benefit from having two much more relaxed parents :) I always feel extremely welcome at Will's group meditations, it's actually where I've had some of my most profound meditations. As a result, I recently took the advanced course and that has taken things to a whole new level. It feels that all my inner talents are coming to the fore and my creativity (I'm a designer) has rocketed. I am also finding that my ability to pitch ideas has vastly improved thanks to the meditation. I no longer get nervous when I am presenting my ideas and I no longer feel wounded or rejected if they don't get picked up. Will really is a truly meditation teacher and his commitment to teaching and bringing its benefits to his students is hugely impressive. If you're interested in learning Vedic meditation, or indeed any kind of meditation I'd recommend you go to one of Will's free introductory talks and learn all about it. You won't regret it.
