Watch Toby Giving a Breif Introduction to Integral Meditation Practice:

How does Integral Meditation & Mindfulness work?

Integral Meditation Practice (IMP) takes three classic traditional forms of meditation and updates them in accordance with integral principles to maximize their effectiveness.

The IMP aims to provide optimal inner peace, centeredness, energy & insight in a very doable daily time commitment (10-15mins) for the contemporary meditation & mindfulness practitioner.

  • The IMP takes traditional insight/mindfulness meditation and transforms it into a practice called “Integral Mindfulness Meditation”.
  • The IMP takes traditional subtle body energy meditations, and creates a practice called the “Integral Energy Meditation”.
  • Finally, IMP takes the classic self-enquiry method taught by several of the great wisdom traditions of the world, and creates a meditation form called “Integral Self-Enquiry Meditation”.

These three integral meditation techniques are very practical. You will be given thorough instructions on how to practice them in the workshop (as well as trying them out), and you will be given extensive support materials (details of which see below) to continue your own daily integral meditation practice.

The Structure of the Workshop:

1st Hour – Introduction and talk: An overview, followed by meditation on the Integral Mindfulness Meditation technique, followed by Q&A/reflection.

2nd Hour – Explanation and Practice the Integral Energy Meditation, followed by time for discussion, Q&A, reflection

3rd Hour – Explanation and Practice of the Integral Self Enquiry Meditation, followed by Q&A/discussion.
