Weekly Content

Each week, there is a one-hour class focussing on the main practice and supported by breathwork, mantra and other practices to deepen the experience and the learning.

Of course, you can take as long as you like to do the course and repeat classes as often as you like, but do make sure you progress through the course in the order given because each week builds on the last.

Course handouts

The course is accompanied by handouts that support each class. The handouts provide a depth of technical and contextual information that greatly extends the practical component taught in the classes. The support material includes, for example, practical how-to guides, weekly home practice exercises, mantras and their meanings and Spotify soundtracks, a guide for how to choose your meditation practice, an extensive book list of essential reading, and much more. Eventually, the handouts will be published as a book because they form an excellent standalone introduction to meditation and pranayama. Two examples are given below:

  • 'Having gone on the most wonderful discovery trip (Meditation and Pranayama Course) for the last 12 weeks I feel about ready to start at square 1! It was a torrent of information and a smorgasboard of delightful practical experiences, all of which I need to spend time with to absorb and feel my way into.'

    Nancy

  • 'I loved ... learning with a teacher who is very knowledgeable and experienced in such a wide range of meditation styles, and who is open-minded about presenting the benefits of all styles. I love having well-thought out and well-presented notes. That enables deeper and more beneficial reflection because we have the material in our hands to go back to!'

    Currrent student

  • 'Adele is thoughtful, thorough, and genuine.'

    Susie

  • 'I loved the course. Thank you so much. I have not had a practice before and I am keen to start one and practice.'

    Current student

  • 'The course was set out to allow a steady buildup of understanding and a chance to experience a variety of meditations. There was an opportunity to transfer knowledge from one week to another.'

    Current student

  • '[After the Meditation course, I have] a much clearer understanding of the difference between mindfulness and meditation, the benefits of both, and the complementary nature of the two. A vastly expanded understanding of the range of practices that are called meditation, along with a realisation of what it is that makes them meditation.'

    Current student

  • 'As a complete beginner with little knowledge or understanding, this course provided the opportunity to listen, try and talk about various ways to meditate.'

    Susie A.

  • 'Perhaps we haven't yet discovered the particular form [of meditation] which will help us. Your course has enabled this to happen, Adele. That is a wonderful gift from you to us. Thank you.'

  • 'I love having weekly mindfulness and higher emotions suggested to be aware of over the course of each week. I benefit from being asked to find instances of these things. eg, looking for things to be grateful for opens my mind to how blessed I am. It also helps me see the good and generosity in others.'

    Current student

  • The course has helped me realise that there are many ways of stilling my mind and finding deeper connection with others, and our world, and the life force that moves within all of us and this. Together we have been led through so many styles and I have had moments where I know that this particular style speaks to me. I now have the knowledge to go on and deepen my experience in these areas.'

    Nancy

  • 'The course has inspired me to do some form of dedicated meditation each day, in addition to my daily practice of asanas. The course has shown me that there is a way that I can learn to control my own energy. I found it all fascinating and helpful.

    Current student

  • 'Wonderful course. I know so much more than before and I have experienced things I never had before. Thank you.'
