Among the top priorities for health and happiness in Edgar Cayce’s teachings was the advice to meditate “deeply.”Studies continue to show the amazing, life-enhancing benefits of meditation—stress reduction, improved brain function, better sleep, enhanced immune system, and even reversal of depression and the aging process. In addition to the physical benefits, meditation can help you get in touch with your higher self and improve your sense of connection with God. It has been shown to increase mindfulness and the experience of being fully present in every moment.

As someone who practices meditation, you know the many benefits—and when you become a meditation mentor, you can share these benefits with others.

Whether you simply want to enhance your personal meditation routine, or want to start your own program or join an existing holistic practice, you can enhance your current career or start a new journey with the skills you need to successfully practice—and teach others—Edgar Cayce-based meditation and spiritual attunement techniques.

During this intensive, experiential four-day training, you will:

• Explore and practice meditation tech-niques from Buddhist, Tibetan, Hindu, Kabbalistic, and Egyptian traditions

• Experience Edgar Cayce’s methods and John Van Auken’s own “passage in consciousness” techniques

• Practice the use of chanting, music, breathing, incense, and other tools for attunement

• Learn effective methods for raising the vibrations of your body and expanding awareness and intuition

• Gain techniques for teaching or men-toring the meditation techniques you have learned and practiced to others

“Meditation . . . helps self more than self can be aided in any other way.” Edgar Cayce reading 3226-2

This training will take you through core methods for obtaining a deep meditative state, practicing a variety of techniques. Once you’ve learned these methods you will receive guidance on becoming a teacher of meditation, allowing you to assist others in experiencing the many benefits of meditation, whether it is aiding a friend or study group member, or teaching a class or workshop.

Expand your mind and raise the life forces in your body through the practice of deep meditation.

A.R.E. Certificate of Completion awarded upon successful completion of the course.
