I have been a practitioner of Transcendental Meditation and the extended 'TM Sidhis' program for many decades. Vedic Meditation, as taught by Alya Hopkins, is the same time-honored technique passed down through a long lineage of masters including Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and his protege Thom Knoles - Alya's teacher. I recently completed the course 'Exploring the Veda by Thom Knoles' (part one) which furthered my education and appreciation of Vedic Science - the subjective understanding of consciousness and our meditation experi... read more

Alya is a kind, attentive teacher. The practice itself has been surprising — in quiet and unexpected ways. She prepared me for all of it, and I never felt alone in the process. I'm grateful.

I have found Vedic meditation to be beneficial in all areas of my life. I am grateful that I took the step to learn this practice, and I’m grateful that I learned from Alja. I felt welcome and relaxed, and although I was uncertain that I could become self sufficient in my meditation after 4 days of teaching, that’s exactly what happened. Alja’s calm and thorough approach, along with the support throughout and after the course has set me up to continue benefiting and evolving with my meditation practice.

At Christmas time I was able to take the time to learn Vedic meditation and I am glad that I did! I found Vedic Meditation simple to learn and honestly underestimated just how effective it would be. From the very beginning, it worked better than I expected and felt surprisingly easy to practice. I was taught by the kind, calming, and caring Alya at Alya Hopkins Vedic Meditation, and her gentle, supportive approach made the whole experience feel welcoming and stress-free. She explained everything clearly and made me feel comp... read more
