WHAT WE GIVE

Fall In Love With Dru Meditation

We've been teaching mindful awareness since the early 1980s where we taught Vipassana retreats to help people start their journey into meditation. Over many years and through training thousands of teachers in yoga and meditation, we've now refined our style into three main stages.

STEPS TOWARDS PEACE

The Three Stages of Dru Meditation

The perfect balance between alertness and relaxation -
it doesn’t matter if you practise in a chair or sitting cross legged on the floor, it’s all about quietening the mind and stilling the body.

Mindful awareness & acceptance

Dru Meditation, in common with many other types of meditation, starts with comfortable sitting and gentle awareness of the body and breath.
This mindful awareness reduces stress, lowers blood pressure, chronic pain and insomnia.

Conscious engagement of this stage of Dru Meditation will help you to become fully adept at mindfulness in your everyday life.

Yogic Models of Consciousness

The next stage of Dru Meditation takes us from just observing our mind to understanding the vast landscape of our consciousness, described in the yogic tradition through models such as chakras and koshas.

This more refined level of practice helps you understand how the body, energy, emotions and thought are linked.

Master Your Mind & Design Your Life

In the third stage of Dru Meditation you will learn to transform your consciousness by learning to become the master of your emotions and mind.

You’ll learn advanced breathing techniques, mantras and kriyas which will empower your strengths and help you to deeply know yourself.

Annamaya Kosha

Physical Body

Using mindful awareness, you will learn to sit comfortably and relax at will, balancing the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems so you remain alert yet relaxed.

Pranamaya kosha

ENERGY BODY

Manomaya kosha

emotional body

It really is possible to master your emotions! You'll be guided into a profound understanding of these vital forces and given effortless techniques to transform them into positive energies for transformation and connectedness.

Vijnaanamaya kosha

intellectual body

Your deep thoughts, attitudes and knowings shape your world. Sometimes called the body of Creation, Vijnaanamaya kosha techniques enable you to become the designer of your own inner landscape - and thus the architect of your life.

Anandamaya kosha

Think of one of those peak moments when you've felt completely in flow, in tune with yourself and all life. Blissful? That's anandamaya kosha, the goal of this course: following your bliss into a silence of inexpressible inner wisdom.

Meditation for Inner Balance

You can use this short, 20-minute meditation to find a place of deep stillness and inner balance. It is particularly effective if you are busy or stressed, or if you need to create a bit more space around you. Dru Meditation is about finding a still inner point from which you can look at the world in a different way and discover a new perspective on your life.

Overcoming fear with Dru Meditation

Giving ourselves that quiet time for self-reflection helps us to dissociate a little - especially from emotions like fear and anxiety.
This process of creating distance means that we can learn to become masters of our mind. Dru Meditation helps us overcome our fears by filling our heart and mind with the positive counterparts such as courage and self-empowerment.
