Meditation Basics
Whether you seek enhanced creativity, a respite from stress and anxiety, emotional and physical healing, or greater spiritual awareness, meditation will help you. In this first module, Charlie explains why meditation is important, along with its basics, various forms, and what to expect from this class.
Awareness (Open Monitoring)
Meditation can have profound effects on so many areas of your life. Charlie discusses how various techniques serve different purposes, and walks you through twelve awareness exercises that focus on different outcomes.
Focused Concentration
Focused concentration is the practice of keeping the mind in a state of relaxed focus. Charlie reviews focused concentration techniques, and explains what each will help you manifest.
Self-Discovery & Transcending

Energy (Physical & Breath)
Every breath triggers the nervous system in a particular way. Charlie will teach you how to stimulate deeper relaxation by emphasizing particular ways of breathing.

Testimonials
Charlie is a very knowledgeable meditation teacher. Vedic meditation has given me the ability to center myself and relax in a particular moment as well as made me adaptable and flexible outside of meditation in this crazy entertainment industry.
Charlie helps me to be in harmony with my relationships with people, my community, my children and my significant other. I feel open artistically and creatively so that I am able to create music as purely as it flows from me. This meditation is the ultimate gift.
Over the past 20 years I have struggled with implementing meditation into my life. Until I met Charlie two years ago. He made it so much fun to learn the practice and he also was able to teach me how to stick with it.
I met Charlie through mutual friends and was so impressed by his grace and easeful presence, I thought there must be more to it! Of course he turned out to be someone who is replenished daily by a dedicated meditation practice -- and he wears it well in how he interacts with others. Charlie is a fantastic teacher -- he has very easy going teaching style but it always felt intellectually satisfying; learning to meditate with Charlie was a such gift!
