Introductory Meditation Course

(in alphabetical order)

"Hello Susann, You will be pleased to hear that I have started practicing meditation on daily basis. The course I attended was really important to me and I am very thankful for your support and knowledge. Practicing meditation has been mostly fun so far. It is a great way to relax and reflect on the day's challenges and experiences. It's great to feel free again!"
Judith Balova, Office Assistant

"When I did the meditation course of London Meditation I was a complete beginner. My only experience had been a few sessions of active meditation in the Monday drop-in. After the course I definitively have a deeper and new understanding of meditation. Most importantly - I learned a lot of small techniques which are very helpful to learn meditation. I now practise these techniques in my everyday life. The course was very intense and inspiring. It was tailored to my individual needs and all specific questions I had were taken into account. Susann is a great teacher. I do warmly recommend the Meditation course."
Nicolas Dedek, Physicist

"What I loved about the course was the fact that I leant several techniques to 'trick' my mind into meditating. I'm not one of those people who can just sit down and go 'Ommmm...', so the Active Meditation approach was a great way of getting to that stage. Susann's style is a unique combination of lots of fun and a serious understanding of her subject. I would recommend this course to anybody who wants to 'finally' find a practical way to meditate, which they can apply as soon as they leave the course."
Rikke Hansen, Career Advisor

"I found the course informative and interesting in a pleasant and relaxed environment taught by Susann who has brought a wealth of experience to the subject. I came away feeling very refreshed with some very good techniques to aid my meditation."
Sue Gooch, Translation Services Adviser and Translator

"The course is well structured and the advice is pragmatic, straight forward and easy to understand. I really liked the fact that Susann made meditation fun. I feel like I have started on a journey of discovery, I'm just sorry I didn't start it earlier."
Yvonne Roach, Human Resources Manager

"I very much enjoyed the weekend meditation course. I found it very effective, useful and found that it achieved much more than I thought it would in the time allotted. I hope to come back for more soon."

Private meditation session

"Susann's faculty to articulate meditative tools in an intelligible way really helped me to be dramatically more in contact with myself!"
Belinda Bouchain, Artist

"I decided in January to try Meditation as I had started a journey of finding myself and had read a lot about the benefits of Meditation. I first went to an open Monday evening session at London Meditation which proved to be a life changing experience. Everyone was extremely friendly especially Susann and I had what I could only describe as a spiritual experience. I decided to delve further into this and had a 3 session course on a one to one basis with Susann. This was immensly helpful as it gave me a better understanding of the processes that was going through. This was as described earlier a life changing experience.
I now practice meditation daily and am sailing through life in a completely different way. Nothing seems to phase me as before and I am able to step back and see things from a distance as they really are. A lot of my fears have gone and even stressful situations dissapear with the minimum of fuss.
When I first started Susann said that I would be able to walk down Oxford street and feel as if I was on the top of a mountain. Seems impossible, try it and see. Thank you Susann."

Testimonials

Monday evening drop-in classes

(in alphabetical order)

"As an old hand to Active Meditations I appreciate the opportunity provided by Susann to do them in the company of other people. It is always much easier to meditate with others than on your own. Susann’s enthusiasm for meditation is infectious and she has the skill and lightness of touch required to welcome newcomers to Active Meditation. The Primrose Hill venue is spacious and afterwards there is often an opportunity to discuss meditation over cups of tea and glasses of fruit juice. Thank you Susann."
Alok, London – Hendon

"I was surprised when I found Active Meditation. I did not have any previous experience of meditating and yet I found this method naturally easy. It seems to be a wonderfully woven balance of music, movement and silence. For the first time in a while I found my thoughts taking a break. As with all things created from the heart, London Meditation is a beautiful place. Maybe it is the type of meditation or the people I meet each week. Maybe it is the combination of both, but I would highly recommend it to anyone living in London."
Damien, London – Hackney

"I did take part in a two guided Meditations before. The Kundalini Meditation was very different from what I knew. I especially enjoid the big difference between dancing and listening into myself."
Jan, Luton

"London Meditation provides a valuable space for people to experience and appreciate Active Meditation. It accomodates beginners and experienced meditators in a single sitting (or dancing) and provides everyone the opportunity to be centered and in the moment... something that the busy urban life makes very difficult for most of us."
Kenny, London

"I am very happy to find Active Meditations in London. I have been doing meditations since 2000, so it became part of my everyday life. There are 2 very nice venues to do meditations with experienced facilitators. The Active Meditations are very effective and helpful in my life. I can recommend it to everyone."
Peter, London – Stratford

"My experience is that one can find relief from the endless obsessional chatter of the mind through meditation. I find that there is a peace of mind to be found beyond all that complaining thinking, all those repeating fantasy conversations in my mind about work and relationships and money. In a meditation community I find it can eventually be enough to just sit in order to find this meditative peace, but here working in the city it is my experience that first I need to shake off the tensions of the day and that is what active meditations gives to me, and may give to you."
Ricky, London – Finsbury Park

"After not having meditated for a long time it was a tremendous experience. A nice room, a friendly group, a lot of positive energy, I could see pictures which I have never seen before. I had the chance to sink in deeply, as deep as I have never been before. I will certainly be back."
Torsten, London – Barnet

"I would have said that I wasn’t suited to meditation; it seemed only to provide me with frustration that I was unable to "turn my thoughts off", but active meditation has changed my attitude altogether. Not only am I able to leave the confines of my analytical everyday thought process, I feel like I can move unselfconsciously for the first time in a long time. It is really liberating and I feel completely rejuvenated afterwards (no matter what kind of a day I have had!). It?s nice to be excited about something which is so good for me!"
Vita, London – Hackney

"The striking thing for me is how the meditation experience changed with time. First day was uncomfortable. Second day was fidgety. Third day was deep and settling. And the fourth day I experienced waves of near-orgasmic bliss."

Testimonial

Meditative Therapy

"One of the biggest differences in my life that can be detected following my experience with Meditative Therapy is the existence of more discipline. I have found that order has entered my life far more naturally and that there is less willingness to procrastinate which is something I would have done far too easily prior to engaging in this form of meditation. I now seem to be able to know how to calm myself in a more structured fashion with the aid of breathing exercises, whose influence in my life should not be underestimated. It is with these that I am able to relax and as a consequence obtain considerable balance and continuity to my life.
I also can only commend the venue in which my classes took place. Its beautiful setting and soothing atmosphere certainly enhanced my experience with each visit."

Coaching
based on introspection and meditative techniques

"I am extremely happy to write a testimonial for Albert, and indeed have recommended him and his services to several friends of mine.
I approached career coaching with an open mind and was willing and expecting to make a complete change in my career. The difference is I have discovered the reasons why I am doing what I am, learnt to concentrate on my strengths and I have a long term focus.
Albert has been fantastic to work with, helping me to achieve clarity and confidence through a very challenging time and helped me to achieve my big goal- becoming a Coach. Thank you!"
Jagoda Kupcza, Coach

She made my time at Utopia Village very special.
The Coaching process and mediation practise helped me to get back and follow my path.
I still enjoy using the tools she has given me to maintain my fulfilled state.
Thank you, Susann!"
