Your Best Self Meditation

Hello and welcome! I am delighted and grateful that you have made it to our site and want to congratulate you for taking the first step towards a more fulfilled and vibrant life. Learning Vedic meditation was a life-changing experience for me, as it felt like putting on a new pair of glasses that lets you see what's always been around but with a sharper, clearer image. It allowed me to better navigate my way through life, as though a fog had been lifted. I am excited to welcome you and share this method that has made a profound difference in my life.

About Derrick and Vedic Meditation

I am a former performing artist, dance instructor, director, and choreographer, who has been in the industry for over 25 years. My journey in meditation began over 8 years ago, and I decided to become a teacher of Vedic Meditation after experiencing its transformative power in my own life. I attended the premiere certified training program under the pre-eminent master and thought leader Thom Knoles and was inducted into the Shankaracharya tradition in Rishikesh, India. Upon my return, I founded Your Best Self Meditation to share this ancient wisdom with others.

Vedic Meditation is a simple, effortless, eyes-closed technique that uses a specific word or sound called a mantra to naturally settle the mind and body into a state of deep rest, one that is 2-5 times deeper than that of sleep. This profound state of rest allows deep-rooted stresses to dissolve naturally, while helping to create a restorative physiology, bringing innumerable physical and mental health benefits.

I am an independent meditation teacher, not affiliated with the Maharishi Foundation USA or any of its trademarks, programs, or organizations. Vedic Meditation is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical diagnosis or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider regarding any medical condition.
