Meditation Teacher Training - CONTEMPLATION (Module 2)

Sep 7th-11th 2020

Yarra Valley Living Centre (Yarra Junction) ___ Victoria

In this 5 day residential Meditation Teacher Training with Drs Ruth and Ian Gawler learn to deliver a 4 week course focussing upon contemplation

Mental clarity, heightened intuition, better decision making, exciting new levels of creativity. Contemplation is a reliable pathway to all of this, while it also increases confidence and fosters inner contentment. Yet little is written specifically on how to practise it, and trainings in how to teach it are rare indeed.

Ian and Ruth Gawler have been teaching this program for quite some years and we are delighted to be able to offer it once more. The training will be supported by a detailed facilitator’s manual.

A Certificate of Completion confirming you have completed 40 hours of face to face meditation teacher training will be provided at the conclusion of the program.

This is another wonderful opportunity to deepen your own meditation practice and become equipped to better help others learn to train their minds and meditate.
