Description

One-size-fits-all meditation is a myth.

Every client stands distinct, with their own history, physiology, background, and aspirations.

Research sheds light on meditation’s role in addressing common clinical concerns—such as anxiety and depression—while actively reshaping the brain’s structures.

Yet, meditation can remain shrouded in mystery, leading to difficulties in maintaining a consistent practice.

NeuroMeditation is an approach that demystifies meditation by unraveling its ‘how’ and ‘why’. It equips you with powerful clinical tools to help you guide clients towards tailored meditation routines, perfectly aligned with their unique needs.

As clients tangibly experience the benefits, their dedication to regular practice naturally deepens, unlocking even more profound rewards.

Watch Jeff Tarrant, PhD, BCN—author and founder of the NeuroMeditation Institute—as he delves into potent meditative techniques that address mood, anxiety, attention, pain, and self-perception. You’ll also learn:

  • How meditation affects the brain
  • The 4 styles of NeuroMeditation with guided practices
  • Practical applications for seamlessly integrating NeuroMeditation into your practice
  • Resources and teaching strategies to use with a variety of clients

Leave this training with the knowledge and skill to effectively identify and design meditation-based interventions to support a wide range of clients in your clinical work!
