Soma Meditation - Hook

Sam is a brilliant teacher and guide for starting a Vedic meditation journey. I did struggle with other forms of meditation before, but finding this course was a gamechanger. Sam is very encouraging, patient, and explains so clearly the power and depth of the practice, while making it accessible and easy to learn. He also has a beautiful community, making it easy to continue being supported while continuing to practice. Would 100% recommend doing this course with Soma meditation!

I would highly recommend this meditation course with Sam!

I’d been keen to try meditation for many years, to combat stress as well as misophonia. Not only did this course help with both, but it has also expanded my knowledge on states of consciousness and enabled me to explore new aspects of my spirituality.

In the first two sessions, Sam went through every detail of how to meditate, what to expect, how to react to thoughts and feelings during meditation, when it’s best to meditate, and in what settings. He gave tips on how to meditate in public so that the practice can be incorporated into everyday life. We then went into a guided meditation, where I sank into a deeply relaxed state. For the rest of the day I felt the most relaxed I had in years and slept for 14 hours that night! In the other sessions Sam and I discussed my experiences so far of meditating, with Sam giving helpful pointers and tips for how to build on those experiences. We also went through in detail the theories of mind and consciousness at the core of meditation.

Sam has an incredible knowledge on the topic and a really lovely way of teaching - both accessible and professional. His support is ongoing after the course - he’s on hand to answer any questions that come up after the course and holds group meditations every week, free for those who’ve taken the course.

I feel fully equipped with a new skill I can practice for the rest of my life. Although I’ve been meditating for less than a month I already feel like there’s a lot less stress and a lot more bliss in my life thanks to Sam!

I took a meditation class with Sam a month ago and still can't believe I've been meditating twice a day for 20 minutes ever since. Previously, I tried numerous YouTube meditations and meditation apps, and I never found an approach to meditation. Sam is a very caring and fantastic teacher who makes it very easy to get involved in meditation. After the course, there is continued free guidance and support from him, which is something I have never experienced before.
Since my first Vedic meditation, I feel that something is changing in my body. And I assume that this is my GameChanger on my way to recover from my chronic illness.
For those who have been struggling to meditate so far, I highly recommend booking a class with Sam, it will completely change your image of meditation!

I took Sam’s on demand meditation course over 3 months ago, and more recently did the full Vedic meditation course. I really look forward to meditating, which I do twice a day, as I can really feel the immediate benefits of relaxation and calmness. I know it has been a key factor in my partial recover from ME/CFS and has helped me get a different perspective on my life. I tried guided meditation before with Apps and videos, but I just didn’t get it and thought it wasn’t for me. Sam demonstrated the benefits of Vedic meditation without being pushy about where I wanted to take it. He’s always there if you have a question, or want to check in, and the twice weekly group meditations are great to make contact with others who are on similar journeys. If you are at all interested in meditation I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I was always very resistant to meditation. Never thought it would be something that would make a difference for me, that I could be consistent with and just didn’t see what could possibly be so special about it. Little did I know how much I needed it!

Having always struggled with anxiety and stress-related health issues, I can honestly say doing the Vedic Meditation Course with Sam was one of the best and most important decisions of my life. Sam’s teachings and guidance through the whole process is uncomplicated, clear and supportive, during and after the course. There’s no guilt or pressure involved, no craving for overachievement or fear of failing some sort of imaginary test. Sam’s relaxed and empathetic nature is the cherry on top of what is, in itself, a beautiful journey to embark on.

After 3 months of practice, I’m sleeping better, my anxiety is pretty much gone, and am overall calmer and more grounded. Pretty much the best I felt in my entire life, and that’s all thanks to Sam. I was very lucky that all stars aligned so that my first meditation experience would be under Sam’s wing. The value I got out of it is unmeasurable and a true blessing. Grateful beyond words. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to join in the magic of Meditation!

Sam is a highly capable, empathetic and inspiring teacher. I'd tried learning to meditate for many years and it was only with him that I could finally build a habit and begin to enjoy the results. Sam cares about his students, and strikes a good balance between being calm and informative. Patient and knowledgeable, and presenting age old wisdom in a modern and accessible way. Recommended.

I did the meditation course with Sam last month and would genuinely recommend him to anyone and everyone ! It was a 1:1 course, he came to London to meet me, the communication and planning around the course was seamless and completely stress free.
The course itself was run in bite size chunks so it wasn’t overwhelming but I still Learned so much and got tonnes of actual meditation practice in, in Sam’s company. I received some life long pieces of information that I’ll remember always.
It was both a professional environment but also very relaxed and personal.
The follow up relationship has followed suit, and has been both professional and seamless, but also personal and very friendly.

Since learning to meditate, I feel I have been given a tool to turn off the ‘mind chatter’! It has given me encouragement to improve all of my self care too, so I am sleeping better, eating better, drinking less alcohol and caffeine, and turning inward a lot more regularly.
Thank you Sam! X

Working with Soma Meditation was my first experience ever with meditation. I participated in a beginners meditation course and it did not disappoint! I highly recommend Soma Meditation especially during these uncertain and stressful times. It’s one of those things that you do not realize you need until you start noticing how enriching it can be in several facets of everyday life.

I am currently one week into meditation and have already noticed a difference in my stress management, clear headedness and overall mood. The course was very informative and my instructor Sam was accommodating of my schedule and listened to my needs and concerns before walking me through my first session to ensure I received maximum value from our time together. Sam walked me through everything I might experience to the T as well as broke down benefits and mediation effects in terms that I understood. Afterwards Soma Meditation made themselves available with regular check ins throughout my first week’s journey.

I feel like I have awakened a super power within me and I do not know how I have maintained this long without it. Huge thanks to Soma Meditation and Sam for enriching my life with his services. I am learning so much about myself and can not wait to see how much I’ve improved come day 90.

Thanks Soma
