Discover silence

Acem Meditation

non-directive - simple - powerful

What participants say

Phillip Sader, insurance inspector, Chicago

The benefits of the Acem-method I am experiencing so far are relaxation that sustains throughout the day, better focus, and less negative reactivity to everyday issues.

I thought the online course was an effective mix of instruction, discussion, and meditation. Each aspect was covered in a comfortable understandable way. The material and slides presented were pertinent tools leading to discussion, feedback, and questions.

What participants say

Gretchen Skedsvold, investment bank employee and business owner, Minneapolis

Acem Meditation has helped alleviate my chronic pain while opening my eyes to an inner world I had been ignoring. In the years since I learned Acem Meditation, I have discovered much and accepted much about myself, in my daily practice and in discussions with other Acem meditators in guidance groups, online retreats, and classes.

What participants say

Zacharias Wolfe, composer and musician

Meditation helps me understand myself and the choices I face. I am more aware of my feelings in different situations and can face them, rather than chasing them away. The feelings become part of my decisions.
