THE TIME IS NOW
Use Your Voice to Make the World a Better Place
Now more than ever, meditation teachers are needed.
According to the CDC, more than 1 in 3 adults report symptoms of anxiety or depression, and stress-related conditions account for up to 75% of all doctor visits.
Â
While chronic stress and anxiety are at an all time high, there is a shortage of compassionate leaders, guides who can bring people back to their breath, their bodies, and their inner calm.
Â
Becoming certified as a teacher allows you to reclaim meditation as a medicine to share with others.

INTRODUCING
Practical Meditation Teacher Certification Course
Your Call to Teach
While other certification courses require decades of practice, costly retreats, or thousands of dollars that students simply cannot afford, the Hawaii Meditation Initiative© believes in making certification accessible and practical, while preserving the integrity of the practice.
You'll learn the foundations of meditation while gaining confidence to lead others, and you'll do it in a heart-centered, hybrid online and in-person container.
If you feel called to teach meditation, you don't need decades of experience or a year-long course... you need expert instruction and a willingness to learn, embody, and share.

Foundations of Meditation
In this opening module, you’ll ground yourself in the roots of meditation and build the confidence to guide others from a place of clarity and integrity. We’ll explore both the wisdom traditions that gave birth to meditation and the modern science that proves its power to heal.
