Awareness Insight Meditation Foundational Course

Learn a simple and transformative type of meditation that you can practice anywhere and anytime.

Awareness Insight Meditation is a self sufficient practice where you sit for 20 minutes twice a day. An ancient yet simple technique now made accessible in this modern world.

Being someone who lives in a society too where you have to show up for a job each day, pay your bills and you have everyday responsibilities I understand that we can’t put our life on hold and move to an Ashram for months (as much as I would like that at times!).

Therefore to have a practice that can be easily infused into our day has been something truly invaluable. One that isn’t an escape but more so something that allows us to hold life with that little bit more comfort and grace. It truly is the most compassionate thing you can ever do for yourself.

I’ll teach you how to meditate without the apps, without technology, just the good old fashioned, ancient way.

You can learn in a group, or privately and once you’ve done the foundational course you’ll have all the tools you need for this transformative daily practice.

This is for you if…

  • You are overwhelmed with day to day tasks and the productivity of modern day expectations.

  • You feel trapped in your internal world and no matter how beautiful the place is around you or who you are with, you still feel distracted and disconnected.

  • You find yourself over reacting to situations and events that logically shouldn’t cause that much of a reaction. Following that comes the shame for being so reactive and putting your emotions onto others.

  • You are constantly thinking about the past, regretting, or worrying about the future.

  • Find it difficult to switch off, even as much as you try.

  • Feel constantly tired. Not waking up refreshed.

  • You say you’ll do things like eat better, exercise and meditate but when it comes to it excuses come up and it all feels too hard. Maybe you make it a few days or a week in and then life happens and you drop it all.

  • You wish you could trust yourself but you just feel like you can’t.

  • You can rarely feel content with the ‘now’.

  • You’re after more presence, clarity, creativity, joy and fulfilment.

Your Teacher

Caroline Sherratt

In such a transitional time of her life, feeling disconnected, living a life following should’s and expectations, Caroline feels very grateful to have found Yoga and Meditation. Practice’s that have reminded her of what it feels like to live a life of meaning and connection again. Caroline is a teacher of Yoga and now Meditation where she was studied through the School of Modern Meditation.

Experiencing firsthand what has unravelled for her through these practices, Caroline’s wish is to teach meditation in a way that feels accessible to others and not so against the status quo.

  • I have loved meditating with Caro, her approach and energy is just beautiful. Caro provides great context to meditation but also allows you space to be in the meditation on your own, it’s such a nice balance and has allowed me to grow my own understanding and provide a good foundation to build my own sustainable practice.

  • Meditation is a tangible, practical, scientifically proven value. Learning with a qualified and experienced teacher will enhance your practice far beyond an app or youtube clips. 

    I find that when we invest in ourselves with a financial exchange we are far more inclined to stick with our practice, keep learning and hanging in there.

FAQS

  • What will you will learn in the course is that there is a very valid reason why it’s taught as 20 minutes twice a day.

    Thinking about the day to day stresses we accumulate as well as our lifetime's accumulation of energy that has been trapped within us, that extra 20 minutes works wonders as essentially unstressing.

  • I too have a busy mind. Minds are designed to think.

    What we will uncover in the course is that it’s not exactly about getting rid of the thoughts.

    Anyone and everyone can meditate and this practice will show you just that!

  • There will be subtle shifts most likely straight away.

    The sustainable, and long lasting shifts come with consistency and time yet are very worth it.

  • Guided Meditations are more for purely relaxation.

    A self sufficient practice allows you the space and time without the external distraction of a voice to essentially get into the deeper stuff that has been sitting there for a long time leading to longer lasting change and improvements within our overall wellbeing.

  • You will receive first hand experienced teaching from a Teacher who is practicing this type of Meditation themselves.

    I too have the excuses and resistance.

    Us humans each have our own essence but are also very similar. So if I have had these excuses and resistance also, just maybe you have too.

    You will also have ongoing support and accountability which becomes very helpful when sticking to your practice.

  • In this Meditation practice you sitting upright with your eyes closed.

    The aim is to be as comfy as possible.

    This means no need for flexible Yoga poses or even crossed legs.

    Yes, you can also wear whatever you wish!

  • No, the Awareness Insight Meditation Foundational Course is welcome to anyone whether you think you can meditate or not.

    My wish is to make it as accessible as possible.

    Beginners to experienced. All is welcome!
