Become A Meditation Teacher.

I wanted to share with you an article written by Isabelle Cunningham, the amazing founder of Mind Body Education, whose exceptional curriculum we use here at Australian Meditation and Holistic Counselling College, sharing a testimony of one of the students of the Meditation Teacher Training Program and how the program has had a profound effect on her life and bought immense positive change.

Isabelle writes:

This week I have decided to use a letter I received

from one of our students as my blog. It tells a

beautiful, personal story of how learning and

practicing meditation has changed the writers’ life.

“Inner Voyage offers a wonderful method of

teaching, which in short has greatly expanded who

I am and the life I am leading! I have begun this

sentence 5 times, as there is no way to simplify

what the course has done for me.

I came to the course interested in meditation both

theoretically and in practice. Now as I am about to

complete the certificate, I am in awe and excited

to be a part of a community advocating, leading

and empowering people in such fundamental ways.

It has equipped me with the skills to begin a new

venture in teaching meditation, to add chair yoga

to my current teaching in dance, and broaden my

understanding of holistic counselling.

Personally, the certificate has nurtured my

subconscious thought processing and

reprogrammed my belief systems. I have

witnessed the level of difficulties in certain

relationships, environments, life-choices and

workplaces minimising and my life has become

significantly more enjoyable every day!

Most notably, I have overcome an 8-year struggle

with feeling conflicted living in the city and find

myself truly loving my life like never before. It has

allowed me to recognise the areas of my life that

needed to be worked on and I have found greater

balance over these 3 months.

Since doing the Life Bubbles and Life Charting

activities at the end of last year, the areas I was

having the most struggle with (financial and

career), have flipped to be booming! And I have

the awareness to ensure other areas do not slip by

the wayside in compensation. The lessons on

Holistic Counselling have intrigued and informed

me more than I originally anticipated. I hope to

undertake the Diploma to deepen my knowledge in

this specific area and establish my own practice,

helping others with simple yet amazingly effective

tools. I hope to support and nurture people to

grow in all areas of their life and find themselves in

new ways.

Through consistent meditation practice, I have the

clarity, resilience and energy-reserves needed to

be working as hard as I am this year. The clarity of

direction and feeling of acceptance/loving who I

am, is making every new day purpose filled. And

the days I find that resilience and energy-reserves

are low, I am listening to myself through the quiet

of meditation practice and respecting what I hear.

I am no longer employing negative self-talk

towards myself for this, or for any other situation

that arises. I have given permission, to myself, to

be kinder to myself and in turn, I am much kinder

to the people around me. Dedication to meditation

has led to a calmer, healthier, grounded life,

whether chaos surrounds me or not.”
