Your Meditation Companion

For me, meditation is grounding and connection, yet also lightness. It’s an anchor in the fast pace of daily life, allowing for letting go. It’s an inward gaze, focusing on intuition, the natural path that I believe everyone has within them.

FAQs

Secular means worldly or non-religious. Our mindfulness trainings and meditation offerings are designed to be secular, meaning they are free from religious or traditional content and rules. This makes them suitable and accessible for students of all faiths and cultural backgrounds.

Our kids’ meditation courses are specially tailored to the age and needs of children. The younger the participants, the more playfully we design the program. We take into account children’s natural urge to move and create a harmonious interplay between stillness and movement.

In our sessions, we show children and teenagers how to engage with the “Here & Now” and integrate what they’ve experienced into their daily lives. They experience a beneficial break from the constant “musts & shoulds” and are allowed to perceive the world as it is and discover it with all their senses. Our programs offer them the opportunity to simply be and enjoy the moment.

Mindfulness training helps children observe their feelings and perceive themselves better. This can reduce stress and anxieties while simultaneously fostering their openness and freedom in thought and action. Through practice, children develop greater resilience and become less susceptible to negative influences from media or their social environment. Additionally, their ability to direct their attention and be creative improves.

Children are often enthusiastic about mindfulness training. They learn to explore their own perceptions and feelings, which aligns with their natural curiosity and urge to explore. Children and teenagers find it particularly beneficial that mindfulness exercises are not about judging or comparing.

Non-intentional meditation is a form of meditation where no specific goal is pursued, such as relaxation or stress reduction. Instead, it’s about experiencing the present moment without judgment or objective. This form of meditation helps children and adults develop deeper self-awareness and acceptance. This is particularly valuable in an educational context, as true self-perception only becomes possible through a non-intentional attitude. This openness fosters the development of a culture of error and supports problem-solving skills. Children and educators learn to better understand and accept themselves and their reactions, contributing to a more positive learning and teaching atmosphere.

The idea arose from the observation that many children already suffer from stress and emotional burdens in elementary school. Studies show that mindfulness practice helps against anxiety, stress, and depression and promotes overall well-being. These findings led more and more educational institutions to integrate mindfulness into their curriculum to better support students. We have been offering courses for children and teenagers at Meditas for many years. As a result, we also received increased inquiries from schools and socio-pedagogical institutions. After receiving great feedback regarding the sustainability of our offerings, we now want to proactively approach schools and raise awareness about mindfulness.

We recommend starting mindfulness training from elementary school age.

For younger children, we design the training playfully and varied, often with active forms, to utilize their natural curiosity and energy. When children enter puberty, a phase of life with many changes and challenges, mindfulness becomes a particularly valuable anchor. During this time, connecting with oneself and the ability to find inner peace can be crucial. We specifically adapt our exercises to the needs and developmental stages of teenagers to help them best navigate this important phase of life.
