Vedic Rounding

Learn the advanced practice of rounding

Rounding is an advanced practice designed to prepare the mind-body for meditation .

The practice consists of a specific sequence of soft and gentle yoga asana (poses), pranayama (breath work), followed by Vedic meditation. The practice of rounding allows the mind-body to drop into a state of deep rest and relaxation, allowing for layers of fatigue and stress to be processed and released. You can think of it as amplifying and supercharging the effects of your meditation practice.

Once you learn to round, the practice can be incorporated into your daily Vedic meditation routine at home and you will be able to resit the course for a refresher anytime you wish. You can also join us during community rounding days where you can round with community or come along to one of our rounding retreats (coming soon) for several days of profound rest in a beautiful setting.

Please note that Vedic meditation is a pre-requisite for learning the advanced practice of rounding. If you are interested, you can learn more about Vedic meditation and check our calendar to sign-up to learn.

Course Investment

Victoria uses a tiered pricing structure known as the green bottle method Alexis J. Cunningfolk, to ensure greater equity and diversity for those wishing to learn. This sliding scale is designed to meet you wherever you are at in life and help determine which contribution is the best fit to your current financial privilege. Please read the full breakdown of the sliding scale before reflecting on your current circumstance. You might not say YES to every statement, but the option that has the most YES answers will be your contribution. If you are a dependent, or supported by your partner, parents, family etc. please answer the questions based on WE, rather than I
