Stress & anxiety make it difficult to enjoy life, and can create physical illness.  Meditation is a proven solution for financial, psychological, or any kind of daily stress. In this Meditation Course, Mordy guides you through two meditation techniques - a basic sitting meditation and an In the Moment meditation for the moment that you feel your stress.

This course is also for anyone like me who is an intermediate/advanced meditator (personally I have 3000-4000 hours of meditation behind my back) so I have been doing it for more than a decade and only recently have moved on to sitting cross-legged for many hours per day! This course can also be helpful for all wellness professionals wanting to help their clients to include mediation in their lives. Only when you are truly aware of the fabulous benefits of meditation, will you gather sufficient motivation to start sitting down cross-legged from anything from 5 min to even 20 minutes daily, maybe even twice a day. For a modern person, this much time devoted to meditation is enough, however, anyone wanting more benefits can/should do more. Unlike, other things, more is better with meditation. But then we are all not yogis and actually have a life and the above mentioned time frame is sufficient to induce positive benefits. In Module 2 , I have taken help from a lot of studies done on meditation and how it affects our health. Make sure to go through this module, as literally knowing how this simple act of concentrating on your breathing can have a profound effect on your health. In Module 3 , I discuss various types of Meditations. In ancient spiritual texts, there have been mentions of over 1000 types of mediations, however in this course I discuss few common types of meditative practices which are widespread around the world. Starting with Vipassana Meditation, I discuss my 10-Day Experience at their retreat (All Vipassana retreats worldwide are 100% Free of Cost) I then discuss Zen Meditation, Loving-Kindness Meditation, Transcendental Meditation. I then introduce Yoga as a form of meditation and finish this module with The Four Noble Truths taught by Gautama The Buddha . Module 4 is where the rubber hits the road . Learning and empowering yourself about the benefits and types of meditation is very essential to at the very least motivate us and generate enough momentum to give this ancient healing art a sincere try. If you already have been practicing meditation and have not been able to find continuous success, then gaining the information I discuss in the first 3 modules will most probably propel you to give this fabulous technique a sincere try again:) So in Module 4, I break down on how a beginner can start meditating in 4 easy steps! You will not only be learning about how to find the best place in your house to meditate, but also learn important pointers on how to achieve the most effective posture(s) to meditate i.e. The Best Butt Position, The Best Leg Positions, Shoulder, Head, Spine and Hand positions. Module 5 will provide you a 21-Day Meditation Challenge for Beginners/Advanced . This program has certain rules and guidelines and you'll be required to stick to them in order to get fabulous results. In order to make the most of your Meditation Challenge, I have created many guided meditations. From observing your breath as a starting point to observing sensations all over your body to AUM Chanting, there are many guided meditation sessions that you will find very useful. I highly recommend that everyone who pursue this course, take up this 21-Day Challenge. Module 6 is your final exam and you need to score above 50% if you want your CPD Certificate . All instructions on how to get your certificate is provided in this module. May you Prosper May you Heal May you all be Blessed ###IMPORTANT### We offer a CPD Certificate which is different from the Udemy's Certificate of Completion. If you want your CPD Certificate from us, you are required to provide your full name and email-address. Your details will remain confidential with us.

I really reccomend this course for the ones that belive in the evidences that science show about mindfulness but can't understand it in their own lives - STUDENT REVIEW This course provided me with a deeper understand of the interplay between emotions/thought and our behaviors and actions - STUDENT REVIEW For a human being, this is one of the most important courses to ever take on Udemy. Achieving mental health is the best thing a person can do for themselves and this course is a great step in that direction. - STUDENT REVIEW Mr. Pedro has shown his expertise in this area beautifully and answered all those unwelcome thoughts expertly. It is highly recommend to those who wish to know about their weird or unwelcome thoughts arising frequently, those weird thoughts jeopardize your life style - STUDENT REVIEW WHY SHOULD I LEARN ABOUT MINDFULNESS? 1. Do you sometimes feel frustrated because your emotions can become OVERWHELMING and seems to hold you back? ...for example, maybe you avoid doing public speaking or meeting new people because ANXIETY takes over you. 2. Do you feel that your emotional life is almost a roller coaster with so many ups and downs ? ...and maybe you are CLUELESS about how our emotions works and what REALLY influences them. 3. Do you feel that you have negative and intrusive thoughts that keeps saying bad things about yourself?...they might say "encouraging" things like: "You'll never succeed in your career" - and they always appear in the worst moments possible ! If you answered "YES" to at least one of these questions then this course is for you! Most of all, these destructive thoughts and negative emotions, just... Make us suffer! And unfortunatelly, we're NOT born with a manual on how to deal with them! I'm a Psychologist and Psychotherapist and in this course I'll give you PROFESSIONAL ADVICE on how to deal with your own thoughts and emotions, by teaching you STRATEGIES that mental health professionals are actually using to help their clients. Most people unfortunately only know how to deal with their own emotions by common sense advice of friends, self-help books, social networks quotes or other sources, that... just doesn't work! (Like, for example, when they say that you should Think Positive!) In this course I'll teach you with EXAMPLES and in a CLEAR MANNER , so you doesn't need to have any academic background, an (effective!) scientific-based emotional regulation strategy that had been nowadays on the highlights of both the psychology scientific community and media : MINDFULNESS. You'll learn in the course: The most common THOUGHT DISTORTIONS and how they are affecting negatively your life. You'll learn how to RECOGNIZE THEM and how to do not let them mistake you anymore. The strategies of emotional regulation that you might be using but science has already proofed WRONG. And why when you try to use them to deal with your thoughts and emotions it usually backfire ! What is Mindfulness and why it is now been used widely to treat depression, anxiety, social anxiety, panic disorders and is helping people to have a happier life in general. BUT WHY SHOULD I CHOOSE THIS COURSE ? +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ There is a lot of free quality information - videos and articles - on the internet teaching instructions about the practice of Mindfulness Meditation. Although instructions on how to do the practice are essential and covered in detail in this course, the content of 'Mindfulness Meditation - The COMPLETE Meditation Course!' is much more than that. This course explains in an easy way the psychological mechanisms behind the Mindfulness pratice. By understanding not only HOW but WHY it works, this will motivates you to keep practing and will enhance your discernment about how to implement it easily in your daily activities - since you understand in depth how mindfulness connects to thoughts and life situations . +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ So after you learn how to deal with your negative patterns of thoughts and afflictive emotions and they get OUT OF THE WAY... You'll be able to use your FOCUS to enjoy more life everyday moments, build deeper MORE MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIPS and live a more HAPPY AND FULFILLED LIFE .
