​

Join us for a transformative 50-hour journey into the timeless practice of meditation. Guided by Rob Mendez of Yoga on State and Gabrielle Kali Om of Ojas Retreat Center—both dedicated students of Sri Dharma Mittra—this course offers a deep exploration of yogic meditation techniques designed to cultivate clarity, steadiness, and inner peace.

​

Through a balance of theory, guided practice, and self-reflection, participants will learn to quiet the mind, refine awareness, and access deeper states of stillness and insight. Whether you are a yoga teacher, dedicated practitioner, or simply drawn to the meditative path, this training offers a grounded and heart-centered foundation for personal growth and teaching.

​

Course Highlights:

• Foundational principles of yogic meditation

• Breath and posture as gateways to inner stillness

• Cultivating concentration (dharana) and meditation (dhyana)

• Understanding prana, mind, and subtle awareness

• The practice of Mauna (silence) as a tool for inner clarity

• Daily guided practices in pranayama, asana, meditation, and yoga nidra

• Integrating meditation into daily life and teaching

​

Upon completion, participants will receive a 50-hour certificate of continuing education through Yoga Alliance and a renewed sense of inner balance and presence.
