What is a Nakshatra Mantra?

Nakshatra Mantra Meditation is a powerful practice for moving into the stillness and silence within. Your own personal Nakshatra comes from the name of the light from the star that heralded the moment when you passed from the unmanifest into the manifest – from stardust into birth.

It derives from the yogic tradition of India, which focuses on achieving a one-ness . . . unity . . . stillness . . . silence . . . bliss . . . no separation between anything . . . your pure unconditioned self.

How is this training scheduled?

During the 15 weeks leading up to graduation week, you will experience a one-on-one video call with davidji, weekly live video webinars in which you will interact with your fellow teachers in training, have continuous interaction with davidji, as well as new video and audio teachings each week. The final week of your training concludes with an intensive five-days in-residence with davidji and your fellow teachers-in-training. Together with davidji and your magnificent posse, you will individually and collectively peel away layers, absorb timeless wisdom, and awaken to your best versions.

You can complete your training with a Fully Virtual Experience from the comfort of your home!

Hello, Spiritual Warrior!

2025, marks my 22nd year of teaching and certifying meditation teachers – and I’d love for you to be a part of that celebration!

Many years ago, when I was signing up for my first teacher training, I was just doing it for myself – as a gift to my heart and soul that was seeking to grow and cultivate a deeper connection within. But through the process of learning and growing, I realized that I wanted to share these practices with the world.

I invite you to join me, whether you are feeling the call to create a deeper and more profound relationship with yourself and those around you, or if you would like to learn how to share the peaceful power of meditation with others. Either way, this training will transform your life and your world in ways that you may not even be able to imagine yet.

You’ll join a global community of like-minded souls on a spiritual path, all supporting each other through this beautiful journey of life. Peaches and I will be right there along with you each step of the way.

Schedule a Discovery Call today – you’ve got nothing to lose! If your heart has been whispering for you to take your life to the next level, if you are ready to transform and evolve and become your best version, if you are ready to own your impact and live the life of your dreams, then please join us for this transformational experience!
