Why learn to meditate?
With Lifeflow Director of Teaching, John Burston

Course Overview

We don’t just guide you through meditations – we give you tools, techniques and understanding to build and maintain balance and clarity in day-to-day life.

Tools and techniques

You’ll learn a variety of meditation exercises made for different circumstances. In a meeting, studying, in nature or in traffic, for sleep or for stress – anywhere.

Topics covered include:

  • Short 5–30 second ‘spot’ meditations for instant calm and groundedness.
  • Longer formal meditations for deeper calm and relaxation.
  • Informal mindfulness exercises to bring joy, pleasure and awareness to daily activities.
Your natural ability

Everyone has a natural ‘way in’ that feels easy and simple.

We find it sad that many people give up because they are forced into one type of meditation.

Unique to Lifeflow, we help you find your own natural ability by guiding you through a range of styles – breathing, visualisations, bodyscan, and more.

By finding what works best for you – you’ll discover that you can quickly and easily access a state of calm and centredness.

No fancy postures – no compulsory cross-leggedness. Sit in a chair, lie down, lotus position, use a beanbag – whatever is comfortable and effective for you.

How thoughts, stress and emotions work

What makes Lifeflow unique is our world-class knowledge and understanding of consciousness and the human mind.

We aren’t shy about it – we are confident we’re among the best in the meditation space.

We’ve distilled decades of insight, knowledge and experience into a simple and practical understanding of how your mind works, how stress, anxiety and difficult emotions arise, and how to use simple tools and techniques to break free and find healthier, calmer and clearer states of mind.

This unique approach that brings both eastern and western insight together was developed by our founder and Director, Dr Graham Williams. Learn more about our founder ››

Frequently asked questions

View all learn to meditate FAQs ››

Is meditation difficult? Can anyone do it?

Meditation is a natural state of a relaxed body and calmer, more open mind — everyone can learn it. We’ll help you find a posture that feels comfortable and a style of meditation that suits you, from very short ‘spot’ practices to longer sessions.

Do I have to sit on the floor to meditate?

No. Most people sit on a normal chair, and you’re also welcome to use cushions, a meditation stool or lie down on a mat if that’s more comfortable. The main thing is that you feel physically at ease, and in your first class we’ll check your posture so it’s easy to enjoy the practice.

What should I bring?

You don’t need to bring anything special — we provide chairs, cushions, and mats, plus water at the studio. Some people like to bring a notebook and pen, but that’s completely optional.
