What is Vedic Meditation?


Vedic Meditation is an easy mental technique which allows the body and mind to receive deep rest and release the accumulated stresses of daily life. Vedic Meditation is simple and effortless. We sit easily in a chair and use a personalized mantra to bring the mind to a place of deep quietness. ‘Fight or flight’ stress chemistry is replaced with ‘stay and play’ bliss chemistry in every cell of the body. Negative or repetitive thought patterns naturally subside. The body begins to heal itself. Through this practice you find a new ability to address the demands of work and home life adaptively, creatively and without strain. You open to new ways of being, being more like yourself, allowing you to become the best version of yourself.

  • “already I feel less stress and more relaxed since I began meditation. I cherish the times each day when I set aside my usual routine and go deeply into a meditative state.”

    - Val, Retiree

  • “Vedic meditation has helped me navigate through the rough waters and makes this life journey more gratifying, whole and enjoyable. And not only does it benefit our health and wellbeing, but it can also have a very positive effect on those around us, especially loved ones.”

    - Mark, Photographer

  • “There are plenty of things in life that prevent a sense of inner calm. I do a decent job of centering myself, but meditation took that to a whole new level. Betsy helps you build a powerful (easy) meditation practice into your life. The devotion she has to your success is so encouraging. And the benefits are immediate. I go about my day with a lightness that has transformed all of my interactions. Im so grateful to have taken her meditation course. It’s a practice I will carry with me for the rest of my life”

    – Jenna, Massage Therapist

  • “Betsy is a patient, wise, and caring person who is also an amazing teacher. She trains you in the practice of Vedic meditation (which she makes very easy) and follows up with you afterward. She isn't just your teacher for the training period, but builds a relationship with you and will provide ongoing support as you grow in your practice. I highly recommend learning meditation with Betsy!”

    -Christy, Professor

  • “before Vedic meditation, the thought of sitting in silence for 20-30 minutes would send a jolt of anxiety running through me - how do you deal with the silence, how do you stop the thoughts!? Cue Betsy and her simple, yet effective ways to help quiet the mind. Vedic meditation and its teachings led me deeper into my inner awareness and feelings of expansion than anything other modality. I can say with all sincerity, without this meditation practice, I would not have been able to remove the thoughts and fears surrounding starting a family and I welcomed my son nearly a year after starting my practice. You can learn the technique from any vetted teacher, however I highly recommend Betsy for her eloquent explanations and personal wisdom with the practice. I am glad to have invested in myself with her as my teacher.”

    - Robin, mother
