Course program

The Certificate in Meditation Teaching Online by Mind Body Education is an internationally accredited foundation program for people who want to teach meditation professionally. Blending the science of the mind with traditional practice, it prepares graduates to lead classes, run workshops, and support clients through meditation and holistic counselling, while deepening their own practice along the way.

This certificate is designed for anyone wanting to build a sustainable new career in the wellbeing industry, with no previous experience or qualifications required. It is open to students of all ages over eighteen, including mature-age learners. It also suits practising holistic therapists who want to add the evidence-based health benefits of meditation to their existing skill set.

The curriculum spans twelve modules. You begin with the history, theory, and science of meditation, including brainwaves, techniques, and how to develop and refine a personal practice. From there you study the psychological and physiological causes and effects of stress, and practise styles including chakra, concentrative, and mindfulness meditation. Further modules explore the foundations of human happiness, subconscious reprogramming, and tools for healing such as positive thinking, affirmations, journaling, and movement meditation.

The teaching half of the program covers leading guided meditations, talking to groups, creating safe environments, and working with specific groups including teenagers, seniors, people with disabilities, and corporate clients. You also learn holistic counselling and coaching skills for meditation teachers, class and workshop design, teaching online via Zoom, and the practical side of running a small wellbeing business, including ethics, customer service, marketing, and branding.

The program includes a live two-hour Zoom workshop led by Isabelle Cunningham, focused on helping graduates set up their new meditation teaching business and plan their marketing strategies; the session can also be watched as a recording. Mind Body Education has delivered internationally accredited, award-winning holistic courses since 2008 and supports graduates through its free Practitioner Support Network.

The course is delivered fully online and is self-paced, so you study at times that suit you over roughly three months full time or six months part time. Learning is supported through an exclusive Facebook student group for connection and community, plus a live business-setup Zoom workshop that is also available as a recording. Graduates are invited to join the free Practitioner Support Network for ongoing guidance as they begin teaching.

On completion you receive an industry-accredited, internationally recognised qualification in meditation teaching that is recognised across thirty-seven countries. Graduates can begin practising as qualified meditation teachers — running classes, workshops, and one-on-one sessions — and are eligible for further study to continue developing their career within the holistic wellbeing field.

Sarah M.

I recently completed the Master Practitioner in Holistic Art Therapy online program, and it has honestly been one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. The combination of art therapy and counselling skills gave me a level of confidence I didn't expect. Even though the course is online, I never felt alone. Since completing the program, I've started working with my first clients.

I thoroughly enjoyed the HICAT course. I am going to miss it now that it has ended. I am very thankful for all it has taught me and changed my life for the better. This truly is an inspirational, life-enhancing and exhilarating experience packed full of enlightenment.
Mandy

The HICAT course was pivotal in helping me build the confidence I needed to do the work I am meant to be doing. The practical activities are purposeful and the content in the lectures is clear and informative. I was able to do the course independently and entirely at my own pace. The HICAT course was a wonderful investment into myself and my future.
Bindi

I feel that this course has been nothing short of life-changing for me, and I am so grateful. My whole outlook on my life and my future has opened up, and my demeanour has changed and that is being reflected in my children and even the dog. I am much calmer and happier and can't wait to help others change their lives for the better too!

I have enjoyed the experience of HICAT. It has allowed me to explore many areas of my life and address issues. It has also given me the confidence to pursue my artistic dreams. Thank you to everyone at HICAT for your support in allowing me to complete my diploma and start my career as a Creative Therapist!
