Many people are interested in learning to detox their body of the toxins they have accumulated, and we all spend a lot of time cleaning our bodies. Yet we are very often carrying around quite toxic states of mind, such as resentment, stress, low self esteem and anxiety, that prevent us from having a truly happy life.

On this course you will learn to recognise these states of mind, to stop identifying with them, and special techniques to gradually clear and clean your mind. In this way you can free your mind from unwanted negativities and start the year with a fresh, positive outlook.

We are living in an age of distraction, where everyone is accustomed to constant stimulation and mental busyness, and it is very rare to enjoy even a moment of inner stillness.  

What would it be like to not be distracted, and to be able to focus our mind on whatever we wish, for as long as we want?

With this course, you will learn how to access profound inner stillness through engaging in a systematic training that increases your concentration. Pure concentration causes our mind to attain a tranquil state, free from distractions, able to stay focused with power and clarity. These techniques can create a strong foundation for a successful daily meditation practice and give us confidence to carry this tranquillity and focus into our daily life.

This course is a perfect preparation for the 5 day silent Stillness Within retreat on Inchmurrin Island. On the retreat we will have the opportunity to put the instructions deeply into practice, to deepen our concentration and taste the bliss of suppleness.
