"Take this course, it will improve your life" - Bob
"Melissa Crowhurst is my absolute favorite Udemy and general spiritual teacher, spiritual guide, and overall kindred spirit (I can feel it, tho we've never met in person!). She breaks things down, gives you great tips and tricks, and a ton of resources to master whatever you're trying to learn. She also helps you feel confident about doing or teaching what you've learned. I highly recommend this Meditation course, as well as her Reiki course, and her Spiritual Business course. Thank you Melissa for bringing your love and light into this world, for having done the work AND put yourself out there so that so many of us, your soul tribe, can find you, connect with you, and learn from you. Many blessings and love to you. Namaste!" - Joanna

====== WHAT TO EXPECT ======
If you're constantly stressed, anxious, short tempered and even confused about life, then you'll be amazed at how the simple act of meditation can bring relief to all those areas - and more! My course has been designed to easily introduce newcomers to meditation - regardless of how much (or little!) time they have! This can also be a great further learning tool for those with some (or even a lot!) of experience in meditation. Essentially, I created this course in a manner so anybody can learn and benefit from it!
====== WHAT'S INCLUDED ======
Once enrolled, you'll be prompted to download the course book, written by Melissa: Learn to Meditate in Minutes, and Guide Others too! (PDF). The book covers all that you need to know to get started with meditation - be it for yourself only, or if you're learning in order to guide others!
As you progress through this course, you'll learn the basics of meditation and its benefits, and a bit about the different types of meditation. I'll then take you through my 3-steps to meditate as well explain my 5 step-by-step meditation methods.
Then to help ensure you have plenty of inspiration, you'll get to download a total of 10 of my guided meditation audios (MP3)! I'll first provide you with my 5 Themed Guided Meditation audios (MP3):
The Relaxer (8 minutes)
Fearful Thought Releaser (13 minutes)
Depression Buster (10 minutes)
Manifestation Creator (9 minutes)
Spiritual Evolver (9 minutes).
What's more, I even provide you with all the scripts (PDF) for each meditation so you can either record them in your own voice or speak them out to help guide others!
And because I want to be sure you have enough meditation material to work with, I will then provide you with my additional 5 guided meditation audios (MP3), too! This will ensure you have a variety of options to choose from when you want more than just silence or music for your meditation.
We'll then dive into a few additional tips that can help enhance your meditation experience. I'll do a quick overview of Chakras, and to help those who aren't familiar with Chakras, I've provided my Human Chakra Poster (PDF) to download so you can quickly learn Chakra locations and attributes. From there, I'll cover a little bit about energy healing and the effectiveness of affirmations.
For those who are interested in learning how to guide others to meditate, I then move into how to best prepare for meditation sessions. I go into detail about the important role a meditation guide has, then provide you with a general meditation script and process to bring your clients 'back' from the meditation journey they've been on. I then top it all off by providing you a step-by-step process of how to hold a guided meditation session from beginning to end.
Once you've gone through all the lectures and completed the recap sections, you'll have all that you need to start meditating right away - and to even help others do it!
If you're already a healer in any modality (eg. massage therapist, Reiki practitioner, etc) you'll be able to quickly apply and integrate these techniques in your own practice!
Once you've completed the entire course, gone through all the lectures and practiced when prompted, if you choose to, you'll be able to take my Meditation Guide Final Exam. Upon successful completion, you'll receive a beautiful Certificate of Completion (PDF) and a Digital Seal of Completion (JPG)! Once certified, you'll have full rights to use the guided meditation audios, scripts and steps from this course with your existing modalities and practice.
Some of the additional benefits of this course include fast stress relief, reduced anxiety, enhanced sleep, improved health, better clarity and understanding - and that's just the tip of the iceberg! As you meditate more and more, you'll become more relaxed and centred in your everyday life, become more spiritually aware and even be able to use what you learn to attract abundance into your life! So whether it's just for you own benefit, or to learn so you can guide others, if you use these techniques regularly - your life, and the life of others will improve fast!
Lastly, as I continue to add more helpful information to this course over time, you'll have lifetime access to it! Enjoy this journey! #biglove
