Each ‘Day lesson’ contains a methodical rationale, plus a practical meditation exercise.

Lessons vary in length from 7 minutes to 18 minutes.

The lessons are highly condensed and it is recommended to practice each lesson more than once to gain greater understanding and to consolidate the practice.

Early lessons are more elementary, leading to highly integrated lessons toward the end of the Course. Take your time. There is no rush. A missed or misunderstood lesson will not forgive you, and will require a return to repeat and re-examine its contents. It is possible to complete the Course in 14 days, but there is no maximum time to completion; days, weeks, months or years. You have lifetime access to the Course.
