A Q U I E T P L A C E

Beneath the stormy surface of our lives
Beyond the uncertainties and fears
Backstage behind the drama
There is always a quiet place
An inner stillness, a peace in which to pause
Always welcoming, like the warmth of an embrace
Always restoring, like the deepest sleep
Always supportive, like the encouraging smile
Of the one that loves you.

Vedic Meditation is a simple, natural technique built on thousands of years of knowledge and experience. It requires nothing more to practice than that you sit comfortably with your eyes closed.

“This is an invitation to pause — one that tenderly directs us to step away from the drama, the fear and that pervasive sense of lack. And ease our conflicted heart and rest our troubled minds.”

Andrés Noren, Vedic Meditation Teacher

Testimonials

“Andres introduced me to Vedic Meditation over two years ago when I was struggling to support my daughter through a severe breakdown. He is a wonderful teacher: intensely philosophical, enormously generous with his time, and also kind and light-hearted. My mind has been blown, but my feet remain firmly on the ground. I have discovered a way to anchor myself and find incredible calm and resilience amidst all the craziness that the world presents.”

– Polly

“Since learning to meditate, I have experienced a number of changes in how I think and feel. The key change is that I am less tired and more self-aware. Now, when I am being unreasonable, impatient or insensitive, I am much more aware of how this impacts my health and those closest to me. I am also much better equipped to deal with the demands that life throws at us. To reap these benefits, all I have to do is turn up, sit down and close my eyes — every day.”

– Ian

“I have found a new peace in my life, and have finally begun to feel positive about myself. I’m still driven by desires for success and fulfillment, but not at the expense of my health and relationships. Vedic Meditation has made me less cynical and quick to judge, especially in situations that appear to threaten my points of view or self image. I’m now better prepared to entertain new ideas and I’m no longer afraid to change my mind - which in the past would have triggered great anxiety in me.”

– Christina, who works in financial services

“With the help of Vedic Meditation, I’ve lost that constant feeling of dread that would always arrive when I needed to make a decision of any kind. Fear I will get it wrong, or will be judged as inadequate or stupid.

With patience, warmth and practical support, Andres has helped improve my self awareness and confidence. I’m so much calmer in demanding situations, assertive in my decision-making and clearer as to what my choices actually are.”

– Kate, PR account executive

“Vedic Meditation has helped me tidy up my life. It’s no longer an unkempt, messy room. It’s becoming a cool and inviting place. Though it’s still recognisably my life, I get to explore it more fully and learn to value and cherish it more deeply. As Andres reminds me, I am a unique and unrepeatable moment. It’s important that I live it freely and fully.”

– Lukas, furniture designer and maker

“Andres effortlessly hands us a treasure trove of knowledge and a simple, elegant tool that helps us restore the missing pieces in our lives. I feel it’s fundamentally changed the way I know myself and experience the world.”
