Learn meditation through a structured series of Lifeflow courses

We offer a range of Lifeflow courses and retreats over 4 terms throughout the year for people of all ages and backgrounds. You can attend just one 7-week Level 1 meditation course, or go on to attend the other Levels as your time permits. Progressing through all the Levels will take a minimum of 5 years, although you can take longer if you wish. We encourage students to take their time, so their experiences and understanding are well grounded.

Each term we offer a Free Talk. The talk will be a general introduction to Lifeflow meditation and its benefits. Each talk finishes with a short guided meditation. Use the free talk as an opportunity to meet the teachers, discover what we're on about and see if it is suitable for you.

Our Level 1 Meditation Course provides a range of simple and effective Lifeflow meditation practices to get you started. We use meditations that are based on body awareness, breathing, guided imagery, movement and sound. No previous experience is required to join our Level 1 course. Lifeflow meditation can be practised by anyone, regardless of age or belief. In each 1 1/4 hour class we usually spend up to 15 minutes covering the background theory and answering any questions that you may have. We recommend that all newcomers to Lifeflow begin with our Level 1 course; we have found that the range of meditations and depth of experience of our teachers means that even people with 10 or more years prior experience have found benefit from our Level 1 course. Level 1 runs for 1 term of 7 weeks.

Our Level 2 course takes the material covered in the Level 1 course and develops it further. Build on the exercises of concentration and inner awareness, gaining confidence to extend the meditations further. You can also enhance your understanding of the theory and wisdom that underpins Lifeflow meditation. This level considerably extends the theory and practice of the Level 1 course and provides the foundation for you to establish your own practice of meditation. At this level we usually spend up to 1/2 hr in each class covering the theory and questions asked. Level 2 runs for 3 terms of 7 weeks each. We also recommend that you complete at least one retreat whilst attending Level 2.

Our Level 3 course allows you to take your understanding of Lifeflow meditation theory and yoga-tantra to a much deeper level, whilst enhancing your practical experience. Each class includes plenty of time for discussion - allowing you the opportunity to link your meditation experiences back to what is happening in your life. To get the most from this level it is assumed that you have your own meditation practice established and that you attend at least one retreat per year. We usually spend up to an hour covering the theory and questions relating to the theory, as well as questions coming from the students' own practice. Level 3 runs for 8 terms (ie 2 years) of 7 weeks each.

Our Level 4 course ranges across topics derived from the highest levels of Buddhist psychology and philosophy. As always we link the theory back to the realities of everyday life. The course is intended for students who have a well established personal meditation practice and ongoing retreat practice. Level 4 runs for 8 terms (ie 2 years) of 7 weeks each.

All students can make use of our Practice Classes. These are for anyone who has completed our Level 1 course (or higher) or a retreat. They provide the environment to enhance your Lifeflow experience and the motivation to keep your own meditation practice going.

What about Lifeflow retreats?
Lifeflow retreat practice gives you time to rest, to restore your energies and the opportunity to let go of deadlines and busyness. You can learn to nurture yourself, restore a sense of balance and well-being, and open up to nature.

Throughout the year we offer a range of high quality retreats at Tara Hills Retreat Centre. Retreat practice allows you to go deeper with the Lifeflow Meditations and to explore a topic of meditation in more detail. Many students have experienced profound realisations or touched deep experiences of calm and joy whilst in retreat. Retreat practice is recommended for all students in Levels 3 and 4.
