Natural Meditation Initiatives presents meditation in culturally neutral formats and sponsors
seminars and a free online course in meditation.
This is one of the top websites for information and instruction in health-oriented
meditation and non-religious meditation. It gives basic information we believe is important for all
people, regardless of their personal use of meditation.
Welcome!
Come in and read, listen, think, learn, and even meditate, on your own or with us.

Web Open House
Our Main Message
We all contain a natural ability to enter the silence, collected energy, and expanded awareness of meditation.
This ability is like spring water. It belongs to all of us, not to any single culture or religion.
• We all have a natural ability to meditate. And we don't just mean sitting
quietly and settling down. We refer to a scientifically verifiable, profoundly significant shift
that happens in the body and mind.
• Since it is natural, we think all people have a right to know
about it, especially to know how to let it happen within themselves.
It can happen inside of religious meditations, but it doesn't have to.
You can do this just to feel better and to become healthier, happier,
smarter and more creative. Or just to be a nicer person to be around.
• Our site is not trying to get you to "meditate our way"--or any way.
We just want people to learn something basic about themselves
and meditation and to be able to learn about it on their own, without
traveling far or paying high fees--or joining a group, unless they
want to.
• At the same time, we know it takes more than a few web pages to learn an art
like this. So, while we give you some meditation "snacks" to nibble on if
you are hungry (as do most meditation web sites), we also give you a place
to take the full course meal and some food for thought.
