Meditation Discovery · Ath

Learn to meditate on your own, in Ath.

Have you already tried meditating… and then stopped? In Ath, you learn a simple method you can practise on your own: 3 Thursday evenings or 2 Saturday afternoons, 5 people at most, 15 audios, a follow-up notebook and an anti-blocks guide.

Meditation space, cushion and herbal tea

Who it's for

This programme is for you if…

You have never meditated.

You want a simple, gradual method, with someone beside you to get started.

You tried, then stopped.

An app, a video, a class. You want to understand what got in the way and find a realistic practice again.

You meditate now and then.

No regularity, no clear method. You want a framework, follow-up and concrete answers to keep going over time.

Three formats

One method, to become independent.

The method and content are the same; session length and practice rhythm vary by format. Choose the one that fits your schedule.

The real problem

It isn't you.
It's that you were left without a guide.

◆You never know whether your posture is right, so doubt sets in and you give up.
◆You're afraid of “doing it wrong”, of never managing to calm your thoughts.
◆Alone at home, nobody is there to correct what's sticking, or to tell you it's normal.

A method, recordings sent each day via WhatsApp or email, and a group of five.

The method

A format designed so we move forward together.

After the first workshop, you have recordings for daily practice, a notebook and a practical guide. Recordings are sent via WhatsApp or email; this does not mean individual conversations every day. You can ask questions during the workshops.

Small-group workshops

We learn the posture, correct what's blocking, practise side by side. The number and rhythm of sessions depend on the format chosen.

Daily audio micro-sessions

To keep the thread at home, day after day, without spending hours on it.

The 15-Day Follow-up Notebook

One page a day to note what you feel, what sticks, what moves forward. It's what turns the trial into a habit.

The “Anti-Blocks” Practical Guide

Answers to the most common blocks — legs going numb, the mind racing, discouragement on day 4 — so you're never stuck alone.

When it's uncomfortable

Unpleasant feelings can sometimes arise. The IFSU tradition describes this as a release of tension. You do not need to force yourself: if practice becomes too uncomfortable, stop and tell me. Sessions can be adapted. Meditation does not replace medical or psychological care.

A method that is taught, not a relaxation session

What you learn comes from IFSU Vedic meditation, which I have taught since 2014. I give you the method, then you practise it: I advise, I unblock, you sit.

5 people maximum per group

Because at that size I really see each person, and everyone can ask their questions without feeling in the way.

The programme

The same content, whichever format you choose.

01
The foundations
Sitting without pain, defusing what we think we know about meditation, getting used to your breath.
02
Body and senses
Aligning your spine, no longer being distracted by the noises around you, releasing through the body scan.
03
Mind and independence
Stopping judging yourself in your practice, discovering the sound OM, meditating alone with confidence.
What you will be able to do at the end

Practise at home, with nobody beside you, a complete meditation of about ten minutes. Spot what's blocking you. Pick up again after a missed day.

What you take away

  • A practice you can repeat on your own, at home.
  • 15 audios to accompany you day after day.
  • A follow-up notebook so that the trial becomes a habit.
  • A guide to the most common blocks: legs going numb, the mind racing, discouragement on day 4.
  • A group of 5: your questions get answers that fit you.
  • After the programme: a group get-together at the Studio, by registration, to keep the thread.

Who leads

Marjorie Mathieu
Marjorie Mathieu
IFSU Belgium · Ath

I've practised meditation since 2013 and have taught since 2014. I've learned that you don't need jargon or big promises for it to work: just a clear method and someone to correct you at the right moment. That's what I pass on to you, workshop after workshop, until it becomes as natural as breathing.

And if one day you feel ready to go further — to move on to something deeper, at your own pace, with no pressure — the individual cycle will be waiting. No urgency. Just a door that stays open.
