Meditation

For me, Maja's meditation sessions are an oasis of calm at the end of a busy weekend.  As I leave my shoes at the door and step into the welcoming yoga room I become lighter.  Whether I stay for thirty minutes or ninety - the feeling of inner calm and well-being is measurable. There is a very special energy in meditating with like-minded souls, which feels so nurturing!

Meditation offers a calming refuge, without the pressure of doctrine or agenda - simply a place to be ...and find peace.

Each week Maja lovingly prepares a sacred space for the group to practise quietude and meditation -

I always feel warmly welcomed and enjoy to share in the beautiful stillness that descends during these sessions.

I always leave feeling somewhat more empowered by the experience of group mediation.

I appreciate Maja’s generosity with her time and sharing of what she knows. It is evident she puts a lot of work into the course and is committed to supporting others to bring meditation into their world. 

Every week I have been struck by the synchronicity of what is happening in my life and aspects of Maja’s talk, I am learning continuously! I also value the follow up emails capturing the essence of what was talked about.

Maja taught me many tools to meditate in a lovely calm way. She is very flexible in her approach and very attentive. Therefore I felt very supported and it was easy to pay attention and relax into it..

My rating is 10 for the Beginners Meditation Course as Maja is so generous in sharing her knowledge and I gained so much from the sessions. I liked many things about the course! I appreciated the balance between practicing meditation (and the many ways to do this) and information about meditation (linking to the origins and benefits, especially spiritual and universal - teaching us how meditation is much more than a stress-management tool. Maja's warm and positive attitude created a nurturing and safe space to explore meditation as a group. Providing us with so many valuable resources. Even though I am still at an early stage in establishing a regular meditation practice, the course has already enriched my personal and professional (healthcare) life.

I thought I would find it hard moving from in-person to online but actually, I feel both formats work well (in person perhaps has an edge, allowing more of a connection with the group).

Maja is a wonderful teacher and I find myself so relaxed during a class and never want it to end.

I feel energised and my day flows after attending a class with Maja.

I really liked the freedom the Beginners Course offered to be able to learn about meditation practices and techniques

and adapt them to my personal preferences.

I was concerned that I wasn't meditating correctly because I often had a hard time quieting my mind.

After taking the beginner's meditation course, I  learned that there isn't any one correct way to meditate and I feel reassured that

I am taking care of myself by committing myself to regular meditation.

Maja's course helped me to understand the benefits of meditation and that I am normal in my struggle to calm my busy mind.

I particularly liked the exercises where we practised different ways of meditating.
