Or looking for a rich body of knowledge that explores things like mindfulness, neuroscience and decision making within the context of the meditation tradition? Lifeflow offers something for everyone. We've created a curriculum that is easy to digest, simple to apply and best of all. it works. We've taught thousands of students how to live more aware, meaningful and healthier lives.
Meditation can be done sitting in a normal chair. If you have any issues that make sitting in a chair uncomfortable, you can lie down on the floor (we provide mats for doing this). If you are flexible enough you may sit cross legged on the floor, or in a yoga pose, or you may like to use a meditation stool.
Guided meditations are the easiest and quickest way to learn how to meditate. Using a series of simple verbal instructions, a qualified teacher guides you into a meditation, leads you through it and then brings you out at the end. You can safely and easily experience deep states which calm your mind and relax your body, and afterwards check your experiences with the teacher.

It is your responsibility to attend the classes as scheduled. If you cancel your booking five clear working days before the course starts, we will give you a full refund less a $25 admin fee.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed training at the centre, and now I’m totally enthralled with retreat life. Lifeflow offers wonderful teachings delivered in a practical, secular way whilst deeply respecting and integrating classical Buddhist theory and the founder’s lineage. I’m definitely a convinced devotee.

The Coming Home - 7 day retreat in July was just what I needed to relax and re-communicate with my inner self. It was my first 'long' retreat and having the time and space, day after day to just let go and concentrate on myself was fantastic and calming. The level of care, communication and leadership from John, Lyell and all the staff was something special.
The food, bedding, rooms etc was very pleasing, the natural setting was perfect. Do yourself a favour and attend one of these retreats - you won't regret it.

I attended the one-day Better Sleep retreat at Lifeflow on June 27. The event was interesting, helpful and well-organised with a wonderful mix of activities and insights into improving sleep routines that I have successfully put into practice. I recommend Lifeflow highly.

Participating in the 6-week long 'Introduction to Meditation' course has provided me with a wealth of knowledge and skills regarding meditation. The environment of the room is immensely calm, and grasps you into the focused atmosphere the moment you walk in. Attending this course has also introduced me to new meditation exercises (such as mindful eating) by our instructor Catherine, who was immensely helpful in every aspect. Now I am always looking forward to the next session because of how rewarding and relaxing they are!

Participating in Lifeflow meditation classes and retreats has had a profound impact on my life. It has helped me relax, manage stress well and improved all my relationships. I love the way the courses are structured and the teachers are of a high quality. I really enjoy the discussions of important issues but most precious of all are the strong friendships I have made.

I have been meditating for approximately 20 years and have recently joined in the Lifeflow meditation courses. I have found them to be simple, practical, and very very effective.
I have learnt a lot about how to get more from my meditation, and how to relax about it.
I highly recommend them to beginners and also to experienced people.

A weekend at Tara Hills retreat centre in the glorious, peaceful Adelaide hills with the amazing bird life, towering gums, beautiful , comfortable accommodation and nourishing healthy food is restorative and blissful. The guided meditation, gentle yoga and incredible wisdom of Lifeflow’s teachers is authentic and heart warming. Altogether a healing experience which certainly unites body and mind. I will always be incredibly grateful for the opportunities that Lifeflow has given to me to learn and grow as a human. Linda Sullivan.

A friend and I undertook the 6 week course together. I certainly gain a new understanding of meditation and mindfulness and how little I had to do to achieve a sense of calm and relaxation throughout my day.
Every lesson was followed up with a detailed email recapping the strategies learnt from the class and simple tips to integrate the learning.
Very warm and welcoming environment, Great teacher. Highly recommend.

I've been to various meditation courses throughout my life and this would have to be the best one I have attended. It's well presented, professional, the venue has an ambience and, it works ! No having to endure painful cushion sitting (although I am not discounting that as a method at all). There is a deep understanding of meditation and its benefits and the teachers are wonderful. Highly recommended.

I've been attending Lifeflow courses over a span of maybe 5 years. The best recommendation I can possibly give, is to say that my life is better when I'm meditating, and better still when I'm learning from the wise, knowledgeable and compassionate teachers at Lifeflow.
They not only provide excellent ongoing teaching, but very reasonably priced retreats and other offerings and events. Thanks Graham, John and the rest of the team for your amazing work, I'm very grateful.
