How and where can you learn meditation?
There are several ways to learn meditation. Beginners can take an MBSR course (see above). These courses (often called “Stress Management through Mindfulness”) are now offered in many major cities.
They offer an introduction to meditation and gentle yoga exercises. The courses usually run over a period of eight weeks with one meeting per week, and you will also receive a CD with instructions for independent daily practice.Many centers also offer courses for many other forms of meditation. Of course, there are also many other sources that offer instructions for independent meditation at home.
Costs
The cost of an eight-week MBSR course is approximately 350€. For other meditation courses the costs vary greatly and should be inquired about individually.
