as Part of your Practice Life
Practitioners with an Annual Friends Membership & all participants of our ongoing Sitting Meditation Group are welcome to sign up for a free 15 mins Individual Online Meeting with our Guiding Teacher Susann Herrmann, Clinical/Occup. Psychol. MA, each calendar month.
What to Expect
These meetings provide another Contemplative Practice Form to engage with, and whilst optional, they are highly encouraged. Working with a teacher is an important part of an active engagement with your meditation practice and with your own life. These meetings give you a space to ask any questions, discuss your meditation practice, or fine-tune your practice instructions.
Please note that these meetings are not designed for psychotherapy, coaching or supervision. They are intended to be brief and to the point, which is why we keep them under 15 minutes. Time slots are allocated at the beginning of each calendar month and are offered on a first come first served basis.

How to Enter the Zoom Meditation Space
Please join the zoom meeting space five minutes early, so that you are ready to start on time. Click on the provided link in the confirmation email and you should go straight into the zoom waiting room for your Individual Meeting. When you enter zoom, type your name (first and last name) as you will be only admitted entering the Zoom Meditation Space, when you are registered for the specific time slot. Be sure that your camera is working, and you are alone in your physical space to ensure your privacy.
Promptly, at the appointed time, you will get access to the Zoom Meditation Space. When you enter we bow to each other with our hands palm-to-palm as an appreciation of our work we are doing here together. Then say your name and your meditation practice and the meeting continues from there.
The teacher signals the end of the meeting by bowing. Return this bow and leave the Zoom Meditation Space.
In Closing
The firm structure of this Individual Meeting is a container, a routine, a path that reminds your body and your mind how to wake up. Some resistance to this prescribed form is usual, but with encouragement and patience, we hope you come to appreciate it as part of your Contemplative Practice.
