Here’s whats included in the course:

Week One: Back To The Body

This class is all about helping you shift your focus from your busy mind to the sensations in your body. It’s a simple, gentle way to feel more connected and peaceful.

In this first session, you'll try guided meditations designed to help you feel grounded and present in your body. By the end, you'll have a clear understanding of the basics of this practice and gain a helpful tool you can use throughout this 6-week course—and even beyond!

Week Two: Exploring the Nature of Thought

In this session, we’ll explore how thoughts naturally move through you, and that you are the space within which they come and go. You’ll come to realize that your thoughts are simply mental events passing through, not your true self. This understanding can create a profound sense of ease and inner peace.

We’ll also revisit what we learned in Week One, with more meditation practice and time for questions.

Week Three: Emotions as a tool for inner transformation

This week, we’ll learn how to use our emotions as a way to stay present and find peace. No matter how strong or uncomfortable an emotion feels, it can guide you back to a calm and joyful state of being.

Week Four: There are no bad parts.

In this class, we’ll explore a technique called “parts work,” which teaches us how to accept all aspects of ourselves, even the parts we find difficult.

You might have heard the phrase: “What you resist persists.” This means that trying to push away uncomfortable feelings often makes them stick around even more. Instead, we’ll practice accepting these feelings, which helps them ease and transform.

By learning to welcome every part of yourself, you’ll discover a new sense of peace and freedom.

Week Five: Cultivating Inner Stillness

This week, we will focus on creating moments of deep stillness in both the mind and body. Through gentle meditative practices, you’ll explore the space between thoughts and develop a greater sense of inner calm.

We’ll practice techniques for grounding and centering, helping you tap into a quiet, steady presence that you can carry with you throughout your day. This session will also provide opportunities for reflection and discussion about how stillness can enhance your overall well-being.

Week Six: Meditation in Everyday Life
 
 

In this final week, we’ll explore how to weave the practices you’ve learned into the fabric of your daily life. You’ll begin to see the world—and your relationships—with a new level of clarity, presence, and purpose.

Meditation has the power to transform your life—this is no exaggeration.

It’s more than just a practice confined to a specific time each day; the skills you cultivate during meditation can seamlessly integrate into your everyday life.

You may notice that when engaging with others, you feel more present, truly seeing and hearing them with genuine sincerity. This shift doesn’t go unnoticed—people sense your presence in a profound way, knowing you’re truly there with them.

You’ll find yourself becoming more courageous, willing to take risks, and expanding your life in ways you once thought impossible.

Chris’ beginners meditation course was so helpful for me. I would highly recommend it to anyone. 
I’ve always struggled with trying to meditate previously but the way he teaches you it’s different to what I’d experienced before.
It’s given me a technique to use to feel more in touch with myself & feel more calm & grounded, yet totally in touch with the wider universe at the same time too. 
The group sessions themselves were great, we didn’t want them to end each week. We all came away with such a feeling of bliss each time. 
 
Thanks
Michelle

 Chris made the Introduction to Meditation classes very interesting as well as relaxing to participate in. He has a lot of experience and passion for the practice. His very open style encouraged the rest of the group to also share their experiences. This led to us all becoming comfortable with each other, while developing a new skill together.

I was feeling the stress of life and in need of my mind and body calming, so looking for a accessible chilled meditation taster course in Stroud. The HealthNuts course stood out. 
Having tried YouTube etc I felt I was I need of some formal guidance. 
Facilitator Chris was very calm and welcoming. The setting it self is very relaxing despite it's handy centre of town location. For me the greatest benefit was having a set time and place and sharing the process with other people.
 
The instructional input is very low key and minimal, with more emphasis on practice and group sharing which also suited me well. I find meditation is very much from within and a receptive frame of mind is important to reap the best benefits. I can recommend The School Of Embodiment as a place to start your journey for inner peace !"
