How we're different
We’ve looked at the world of meditation, and realized that we want to make a change in how we teach our meditation teachers.
In many meditation communities, restriction of personal expression, jealousy & drama is sadly all to common.
With The Meditation Approach, we’ve tried to create a system that provided all the benefits of authority from meditation teacher certification, without all the drama & restriction.
This means we can teach you not only how to be a meditation teacher, but how to grow and develop your sustainable meditation business, without the usual “… don’t outshine the Guru” or “Hey, you’re doing it wrong!” that usually comes with representing a meditation tradition.
Also, we encourage new teachers to be unique in their very own approach. We believe there is as many meditation teachers as their are meditation techniques!
Our focus is to give you such a deep understanding of the mindset from which our meditation approach comes, that you’re a meditation teacher at your core, not somebody who has to follow a script.
YOUR TEACHER
Ed Vero
Personal History
After his early life as a trained chef, Ed found meditation at 19 years old.
Initially a skeptic, he resisted, but quickly realized that meditation was the hardware to run the software of deeper personal philosophies.
Eventually becoming the youngest certified teacher in his tradition, he's dedicated his life to teaching meditation, full-time, since 2012.
Currently, he's the most experienced meditation teacher in his tradition in mainland Europe.
Principles
For the length of his career, Ed has been dedicated on teaching meditation in a sustainable & approachable way.
Focusing on clear rationale, powerful examples & accessible metaphors, he's attempted to outline complex topics around meditation, without invoking mystique or using abstract terminology.
Seeing the troubles within the world of meditation instruction, he's attempts to create conscious, sustainable, human communities and systems that benefit meditation students, as well as their teachers.
Experience
Ed's worked with people from all walks of life during his decade of teaching. From working with first responders during the migrant crisis in 2014 & healthcare workers during covid19 to teaching oscar winning actors & rock-and-roll hall of fame musicians.
He's refined his meditation courses with thousands of group & private clients - developing relationships with them over hundreds of off-site meditation retreats, consultations, knowledge courses & mentor groups during the course of his decade long career.
Education
Ed's well known within the meditation community as an autodidact, someone who continues to research into a vast range of topics.
After completing his intensive several year meditation teacher training in India in 2012, he continued to dive into the tradition, unearthing many out-of-print books, translating & studying the depths of the Indian Shakaracharya Matt traditions.
He speaks Hindi, German, & English - developing courses of a meditative approach to decision making, habit-forming, alternative forms of motivation, karma yoga & ancient Vedic-Based Philosophy.
