WHAT OUR LEADERS SAY ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Heather
‘When I found out about Skillful MIND’s Leaders Program being in the midst of a career change I signed up instantly. The Leaders Workshop takes you through step by step, and requires you to prepare a session for assessment – live. It may sound daunting, but if you truly want to learn about meditation and leading meditation groups, Peter & Mardi show you what it takes – and that you can do it! ‘I now lead 3 meditation sessions per week and the participants’ breakthroughs are so encouraging. I’m feeling satisfied with my new lifestyle. Some people may choose this as an option for extra-curricular activity outside of their work hours and I think that will also enhance their life the way it has mine. Either way, you are tapping into an area which is often neglected in today’s modern, busy lifestyle.’
Heather – Meditation Leader Victor Harbor
Verity
‘I was on a journey of healing that lead me to SkillfulMind, to become a SkillfulMind Meditation Leader. I feel this has made me a committed, stronger meditator. I have much joy assisting my participants learning Peter’s techniques, and also committing to the weekly practice(some daily), learning the skills to control the mind bringing peace and happiness to their lives.
‘Another benefit for me is I’m able to also promote my Breathwork to my meditation students, which I am also very passionate about.’
Verity – Meditation leader – Warradale
Emma
‘Being a Skillful Mind Refresh Leader is a really positive experience. It has allowed me to share my passion for meditation and join a like-minded community of people. It has also assisted me to develop and extend my meditation practice. Coordinating the classes with another leader has allowed for flexibility in case we are away or not available but when we are both present, it allows for me to be a student and participate in meditation.
‘Participating as a Skillful Mind Refresh Leader is beginning to open other opportunities within the health and wellness sector. It is positive to remember that we are sharing meditation with the wider community.’
Emma – Meditation leader Brighton
Who this course is for:
- People who want to spread the benefits of meditation to the wider community
