Hi Everyone,
And a big welcome to all the new members who joined over the weekend and this week! 👋
I’ll get the usual notes out of the way first before sharing what’s new and what’s coming up inside the community.
Meditation Calendar & Accountability:
The default meditation slots on the calendar can always be added to.
If you enjoy meditating with others (even electronically!) and would like some accountability, please send over any time slots that work well for you and I’ll add them to the calendar.
If I can’t make those times, others in the group might be able to — so feel free to share.
Everyone’s routine is different. Some people like meditating before bed around 21:00, while others prefer to be feet up with a cuppa (or wine) watching Netflix at that time. So if you have any preferences for meditation times on different days, just let me know and we’ll build the schedule around what works best for the group.
Coffee Morning & Onboarding:
For anyone who would like to meet or have a private onboarding chat about everything that’s available in the community (and a peek into the other tiers), feel free to come along to the Coffee Morning if you can.
If that time doesn’t work, just suggest another time and we’ll arrange another slot.
Q&A Sessions:
The live Q&A session is usually on Fridays, but if other times suit people better, please shout and I’ll include them where my diary allows.
Upcoming Online Qigong Presentation:
I’m also planning to run an online Qigong presentation where we’ll explore the history, roots, and energetic principles of Qigong.
This will be a more educational session looking at where these practices come from, how they evolved through Daoist traditions, and how the energetic principles behind Qigong actually work.
I’m currently considering a few possible times:
• Friday 20th March — mid afternoon
• Sunday 22nd March — 13:00
• Friday 3rd April — 15:00
If you’re interested in attending, please let me know in the community and which of these dates works best for you.
New Premium Lesson Released:
The new lesson in Premium is now live.
In this lesson we take the next step beyond the body and mind and explore something even more subtle — the world itself.
When you look carefully, what you call “the world” is experienced as sights, sounds, sensations, colours, and movement — all appearing in awareness.
Just as the body appears as sensation, the entire world is known through perception.
This lesson gently reveals how the sense of being a separate observer inside a body begins to dissolve, and how experience is actually one seamless field of awareness in which body, mind, and world all arise.
The video is now live inside the group — take some time to watch and explore this shift for yourself.
New Article: The 7 Stages of Meditation:
I’ve also released a new article exploring The 7 Stages of Meditation.
Here’s the opening section:
When people begin meditation, they often assume something is going wrong when the mind feels noisy, chaotic, sleepy, or starts chattering even more.
In reality, these are natural stages the mind passes through as it begins to settle.
What’s fascinating is that many spiritual texts, traditions, and sages throughout history have documented these stages.
The Buddha described aspects of this process in texts such as the Anapanasati Sutta, Satipatthana Sutta, and the teachings on the Jhanas.
Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras outline classical stages of meditation and absorption.
Tibetan Buddhism offers similar insights through teachings such as the Seven Points of Mind Training, while Dzogchen texts like the Great Perfection commentaries describe the recognition of awareness itself.
Daoist traditions also discuss these stages in works such as the Zuowanglun (Treatise on Sitting and Forgetting) and the Wuzhen Pian (Awakening to Reality).
Alongside these classical traditions, modern sages such as Ramana Maharshi, Nisargadatta, and Krishnamurti also described similar patterns that the mind passes through when resting in deep silence and stillness.
Drawing from these traditions, I’ve synthesised their insights into a cross-tradition roadmap.
The aim isn’t to create rigid stages to chase, but to help you recognise where you might be in meditation and remove unnecessary confusion when these experiences arise..................

Thanks for reading, and I hope to see you all soon.
If you’d like to attend a meditation session, the Qigong presentation, or suggest other time slots, just post in the community and I’ll share the links.
Have a great rest of the week.
Miles 🙂
