Enroll

Overview

There are many paths to one-ness. Literally thousands of schools and philosophies of meditation exist, each with a unique technique or way of helping to experience present-moment awareness. davidji celebrates them all, and this teacher training honors every tool, technology, and body of knowledge that can help you quiet the fluctuations of the mind and achieve deeper meaning, purpose, peace, and fulfillment in your life.

In this training, davidji combines different types of meditation, group discussions, energy work, chanting, dancing, lectures on the soul, teachings from the Vedas, and group interaction, which interweaves the physical, emotional, and spiritual components of meditation into a very personal journey, traveling from your most ego-based, individual Self to the most divine and cosmic aspects of your universal Self.

The Only 285-Hour Meditation Training

The training begins in Summer 2019 with online lessons, readings, and webinars that flow into a 6-day in-residence immersion at the Meditation Nest in Carlsbad, CA.

Study Ancient & Modern Philosophy

Connect with the greatest teachers of Vedanta, Buddhism, spirituality, emotional healing and mind-body wellness from ancient texts to modern day translations.

90-Day Followup Program

Program

During your time leading up to the final week, you will experience a one-on-one Skype call with davidji, a live video webinar per month in which you will interact with your fellow teachers in training, have continuous interaction with davidji, as well as video and audio teachings each week.

The final week of your training concludes with an intensive seven-days in-residence with davidji and your fellow teachers-in-training at The Meditation Nest in Carlsbad, Calif.

FAQ

Do I need a certain level of experience before taking this course?
 All you need for meditation teacher training is an open mind and open heart, and the willingness to start a meditation practice.

Where does the workshop take place?
 You will experience the natural and peaceful setting at the Meditation Nest, a private retreat just steps from the sand, overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Carlsbad, Calif. We call this the “Sweet Spot of the Universe.” It’s a 30-minute drive from the San Diego International Airport by taxi, car service or rental car, which you will need to arrange. You will receive detailed driving instructions and an address in your registration confirmation packet.

Travel, lodging and meals are not included in the cost of tuition.

Are there exams?

Will there be guest teachers or other activities scheduled?
 Together we will practice several different styles of yoga and meditation every morning and evening. There will also be guest speakers and instructors

What should I pack?
 Comfortable, casual clothes such as yoga pants, sweats, flip flops and running shoes. Layers are good in case the weather turns chilly, which happens often on the coast. Other items to pack: a blank journal, light reading, toiletries and any comforts of home.

Can I bring my own food?
 Yes! There is plenty of space for you to store your personal food preferences and dietary supplements. Light snacks and beverages will be available to you daily. We will provide you with recommended local eateries and information.

Will I have designated free time?
 The schedule is pretty full, but you will have time for reflection, personal journaling and meals on your own.

How many people are enrolled in each training?
 To allow for the most personal connection among students and davidji during the months leading up to our week together, we close registration at around 30 students.

Will the training ever be moved to the East Coast or Europe?
 There is always that possibility, and we are forever open to opportunities.

Where can I stay during the in-residence training? Attendees are encouraged to stay at The Meditation Nest to better immerse in the program, which begins at sunrise each day and ends well after sunset. Rooms in The Nest range from $180 per night for shared accommodations to $265 for private rooms, are sold on a first-come-first-serve basis, and sell out quickly. If you wish to stay on site, remaining rooms available will pop up during the registration process so you can choose and pay for your lodging at that time. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer a refund or credit for cancelled room bookings. Please contact our Events Manager at nancy@davidji.com for information.

Some students also choose to stay at one of the hotels close to the Nest; three hotels in particular are within two blocks of the Meditation Nest. The Carlsbadinn.com is a nice hotel literally across the street; the beachterraceinn.com is on the beach and is also very nice; and oceanpalms.com is the most affordable and across the street from the Nest.

Payment Plans and Cancellation

We’re here to support you on your journey and to make the planning process smooth. That’s why we’re pleased to offer a payment plan that you may choose during registration. Installments will be debited automatically each month until the balance is paid in full.
