I found Ben's technique much more helpful (and easier to commit to a consistent practice!) than the mindfulness-based meditation I'd tried in the past. Ben is a delightful teacher and balances practical information with the science behind his technique (e.g. how it helps calm the sympathetic \fight or flight\ nervous system). Worth investing your time and money in. Would recommend without reservation!

Ben is a very engaged, committed teacher . He incorporates a wonderful combination of personal stories. scientific research , physiology and active participation with a dose of 21st century wisdom. Enjoy the benefits - make it part of your daily routine.
“Prior to meeting Ben and learning the Vedic meditation teachings, my life was completely out of balance. I was in a constant struggle to fill a deep sense of longing with more belongings and by numbing myself in whatever way I could. Hitting a crossroad in my life and lacking any spiritual grounding to the world around me, I was fortunate enough to meet Ben through my wife and began his simple, yet powerful training. His calm and caring nature made the entire process feel like I was learning the practice from a close friend. Almost immediately I felt lighter, slept soundly and more capable. The weight of the world around me no longer clung to me like concrete but shed off with every mediation session. My level of stress lessened and my happiness grew. My daily encounters with others was no longer a battle but met from a place of clarity and understanding. I have found the place I am now at in life to be more fulfilling than I could have ever imagined through this daily practice.”
Through my meditation practice, I now have a \pit stop\ midway through the workday that helps me stay sharp, effective, and calm late into the evening. This is pretty remarkable given that before meditation, my only solution was a large coffee at 3pm. Both twenty-minute meditations, but particularly the second in the afternoon, help me feel like I just had a great night's sleep. Further, from a productivity standpoint, meditation also helps me prioritize where I should focus my attention and, perhaps more importantly, it helps me identify and dismiss issues that are insignificant noise. On a personal level, meditation has helped me achieve a new perspective, one of more calm observation. The meditations have a way of unearthing unresolved issues, past trauma the body hasn't quite forgotten. Fortunately, meditation also helps me observe, accept, and dissolve these issues away. Indirectly, I can now more clearly identify what I want and more assertively express myself to achieve those goals. I'm very grateful for learning meditation with Ben and for the benefits it continues to bring me.
