What is meditation?
Broadly speaking, meditation is a set of practices designed for relaxation, stress reduction and self development. There are many different techniques, but most involve sitting quietly and deliberately placing the attention on a specific object. These objects are known as “anchors” and give us somewhere to rest our awareness away from the flood of thoughts that deluge us everyday.
Popular anchors are the breath, body sensations, visualisations and mantras. Vedic Meditation is a mantra technique that uses a word with no meaning that we repeat silently in our heads that leads us to a state on inner stillness and rest.
Vedic Meditation
The Vedic Meditation technique comes to us from a tradition dating back thousands of years ago in India. Countless scientific studies in recent decades have shown it to systematically reduce stress and anxiety. We sit with our eyes closed for 20 minutes once or twice a day and effortlessly repeat a mantra, gently returning to it whenever we find ourselves lost in thought.
Why Vedic?
Unlike other anchors, the mantra speaks the same language as our thoughts. “I’ve tried several other techniques,” says Rory, “including mindfulness-based breathing and body-scan techniques and have found mantra to be the easiest. For many of us, hearing is something we already associate with relaxation and the mantra uses the same vibrational language as music, which resonates with many of us.”

The approach
There’s no concentration, force or control, we just gently bring our awareness to the mantra when we remember to. There’s a misconception that meditation is about forcing the mind into a state of inactivity. As anyone who has ever tried to do this will know, it’s impossible! The mind is more like a wild horse that you need to befriend and gently guide rather than forcing. The technique teaches us to take an effortless approach of clear intention but non-attachment which brings benefits to us in the rest of our lives.
