What is Vedic mantra meditation?

Vedic mantra meditation is steeped in history. It's the oldest known meditation technique from the 5,000 year old Vedic tradition of northern India where we get Eastern philosophy, yoga, pranayama & Ayurvedic health practices.

Our meditation uses the repetition of a silent personalised bija mantra to settle your mind down into its quietest state, enabling you to transcend, or go beyond, your thoughts entirely. In this bliss state your body experiences deep rest and repair. Just 20 minutes twice a day can physically de-stress your body and mind leaving you rejuvenated and energised.

There's no need to sit cross legged, join a religion or change your lifestyle. It's a simple, natural and effortless technique with life-changing benefits.

Meet Dan - During a 20 year career in education and the corporate world Dan found mindfulness meditation before looking for something more profound. Hooked from the moment Vedic meditation solved his 6-year long sleep issue within 48 hours, he has been meditating daily ever since, learning advanced meditation techniques and exploring yogic and Vedic philosophies. He now teaches meditation and shares the vision of his teacher, Deepak Chopra, of creating a billion meditators worldwide to bring about societal change. Meditation is the foundation of this ripple effect.

Inspired by his own teachers around the world, he is a certified meditation and breathwork instructor and founded Gen Zen Meditation to inspire a new generation of meditators, both young and old, by making meditation inclusive, accessible and enjoyable.

Dan says "Meditation can very quickly have the most profound and life-changing impact on our being, allowing us to feel like the high performance individuals that our potential deserves. Anyone can do it. Everyone has that potential within, let us unlock it for you."
