Primordial Sound Meditation

Meditation allows us to discover the silence, the stillness, which creates an inner peacefulness and renews our energy for everyday life. As recognised benefits of meditation increase to include focus, creativity, vital energy, enhanced learning and performance, deeper self-awareness and a happier healthier lifestyle, it is becoming a popular practice. And anyone from the age of five upwards can benefit from the Primordial Sound Meditation Programme created by Drs Deepak Chopra and David Simon with UK instructors at The Retreat Company.

Meditate on the sounds of the earth

With Primordial Sound Meditation the vibrational energy at the time of your birth becomes your mantra. Your mantra is practiced silently daily guiding you inwards away from the hectic frenzy of your daily activity towards stillness, soothing your entire physiology and reconnecting you with your essence. Using ancient Vedic mathematics your Mantra is selected from nearly one hundred Primordial Sounds, which with practice becomes your own.

Primordial Sounds are the basic vibrations of nature. Some are audible such as the wind, the sea, our breathing. Others are silent vibrations such as the sounds of the plants sprouting and growing, the sound of the earth rotating and the silent rhythms of our bodies. We sense them internally.

Reconnect with your essence.

Find focus energy, creativity and a happier healthier life

With regular practice of meditation you will find a way to access greater fulfilment and understanding as it contributes to a happier, healthier and fuller life. You will begin to feel an increase in energy with vitality released from a deeper level of your nervous system and can become profoundly healing. And as you access this additional energy and clarity you will be enabled to accomplish more in a day.

Dr Deepak Chopra created the Primordial Sound Meditation Programme with Dr David Simon and explains the importance of meditation: "If you were to ask me what was the most important experience of my life, I would say it was learning to meditate. For me that is the most important thing a person can do to restore harmony and evolve to a higher state of consciousness."

Jo Pickering, Co-Founder, The Retreat Company trained with Deepak Chopra to become the UK's first qualified instructor in Primordial Sound Meditation, says, "Primordial Sound Meditation is easily learned in four sessions over a period of seven hours spread over 2-3 days and the benefits will last you a lifetime if you choose to continue to practice meditation regularly."

During the course you will be introduced to the basic principles with a two-hour group session, which includes a special video lecture presentation featuring Deepak Chopra reviewing the use and purpose of mantras. In session two you will meet privately with your instructor to receive your personal mantra before going on to practice meditation with the group for 30 minutes. Session three looks at perfecting the practice by reviewing the practical aspects of meditation and participating in meditation with the group. Finally session four is where you share a vision of higher consciousness in a specially prepared video with Deepak Chopra.
