What Students Are Saying About PYC’s Mindfulness & Meditation Training

Sharon B.

I have never been as enlightened and positively affected by any teacher training the way I was with Susan and Sarah’s Meditation TT. This training schedule was so perfectly orchestrated, and it was all done online. Within a few hours I started to feel more capable of becoming a Meditation teacher. The course explores the scientific as well as the spiritual characteristics of meditation. They allowed for time to explore our individual style of teaching when applied to being a meditation facilitator. I recommend this course to anyone interested in learning more about the attributes and benefits of Meditation & Mindfulness. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Dianne N.

The Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Training was such an incredible experience! The layout of the course content was very well organized. We were given a variety of information/tools to use related to Mindfulness. Sarah and Susan were very supportive and made our time together go by very fast. By the end of the training, I felt more confident leading mindfulness meditations, and I have all the tools/information to confidently lead some Mindfulness Workshops. My own meditation practice has deepened, and I am more mindful in my everyday life. I would highly recommend this training.

Marta G.

Meditation teacher training with Susan and Sarah was a very enriching experience! The balance of theory, practice, and experience sharing provided everything needed to confidently start teaching meditation and mindfulness practices. Susan and Sarah practice what they preach and are able to hold beautiful space for participants as they walk alongside our journey. Many thanks to you both!
