RECENT EVENTS
JILLIAN'S 20 YEAR TEACHING ANNIVERSARY, MARCH 2023
"Twenty years ago, I graduated as a teacher of Vedic Meditation. This was the culmination of many years of meditating and more than a year of one-on-one study involving hundreds of hours of extended, deep meditation. As I left my haven in the mountains of Arizona to begin a new career, I took a massive leap into the unknown. The diversity of people I meet continues to inspire me – the appeal of this ancient technique of transcending thought is universal. And the power of this wisdom to bring truly positive change continues to motivate me. There is no teacher without students. It is a privilege to teach and I am so very grateful to everyone who has placed their trust in me to teach them this profound knowledge." - Jillian

Thank you to everyone who has bought the book and messaged me saying how much you've enjoyed it. That means everything to me.
