200 Hour Meditation Teacher Training in Rishikesh India
As per the Merriam-Webster dictionary, the meditation is simply about focusing your mind to reach a spiritual state. But it is not just an activity as it is also a way of being.
To get into that peaceful state, you have to deal with your busy minds and strong feelings. At Sri Yoga Ashram, you will practice techniques to go beyond your thinking brain and connect with a deeper sense of awareness.

Our 200 hour Meditation Training course is designed to be inclusive and does not belong to any specific religion. It honors the idea that all religions lead to a sense of unity and oneness cannot be separated. It draws upon the wisdom of ancient texts and teachings of various masters which highlight their messages rather than their identities. This means that regardless of your religious background, meditation can enhance your path without requiring you to abandon your beliefs. The focus is on releasing limitations rather than losing your individuality.
This meditation course is designed as a personal journey into self-discovery, a place where silence helps you hear yourself and the world around you and where individual practice is enriched by connections with others. It is a space for exploration of the mind and a path towards self-awareness. In addition to developing yourself you learn important lessons and skills to assist others in growing their personal journeys. This training in addition to you own personal training will assist you as a teacher in developing your skills and tools to help others grow and have a meaningful impact on people’s lives.
We all know that it is hard to quiet our minds even when we close our eyes and try to meditate. If you really understand how your minds work, it can make the process so much easier and more effective. Let us think about why we get bothered in certain situations like:
- Struggling to think clearly or focus.
- Your feelings take over and you can't control them.
- You worry a lot about what might happen in the future.
- It is hard to get over painful things that happened in the past.
- You feel isolated and sad when you are alone.
- Your minds are always busy and will not quiet down.
Wise people have been teaching for years how to find inner peace and handle problems. Everyone has different struggles but the tools you work with are the same like your minds, emotions, energy and bodies. So, let us focus on understanding and improving those first.
- Are you curious about meditation and want to find what works best for you?
- Do you want simple and science-backed ways to improve your wellbeing?
- Would you like a peaceful place to practice meditation?
- Are you interested in getting to know yourself better and building a solid meditation practice?
- Do you want to learn from experienced teachers who have explored many different meditation, mindfulness and yoga nidra techniques?
- Are you open to trying both traditional and new ways to meditate that have helped others?
- Would you like to eventually share these practices with others by teaching them?
