Do you want to experience deep relaxation, learn meditation, and sustainably improve your quality of life? Would you like to work with greater focus, feel more content, and pass on the benefits of meditation to others? Then the training programme to become a Meditation Instructor and Mindfulness Trainer is exactly right for you.
Hardly any other area of yoga has been studied as extensively as the effects of meditation on the brain. Scientific research shows that meditation positively alters neural structures: the prefrontal cortex, responsible for analytical thinking, is strengthened, while areas associated with negative emotions become calmer. This leads to improved concentration, increased well-being, relaxation of the nervous and cardiovascular systems, support for the internal organs, and a strengthened immune system.
Meditation provides strength and energy, heals inner wounds, and fosters calmness and self-love. The journey into inner stillness can lead to new insights into yourself and your way of life. The deeper you immerse yourself in the practice, the more intensely you experience processes beyond everyday consciousness, culminating in a profound sense of unity.
The video-on-demand course can be completed at your own pace – anytime and from anywhere. The training follows a certified didactic concept and corresponds to the curriculum of our in-person programme. The course author guides you step by step through all content.
At the end of the programme, you will receive the following certificates:
If you are looking for a meditation instructor training programme that combines scientific research with spiritual expansion of consciousness, our course is exactly right for you. You will learn both Eastern and Western meditation techniques, grounded in a solid scientific foundation.

Professional profile: Meditation Instructor & Mindfulness Trainer
More and more people are meditating, and the demand for meditation instructors continues to grow steadily. This is linked to increasing workload intensity and rising levels of stress in modern society. Sociologists refer to the so-called VUCA world, characterised by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity. Meditation can help us find inner stability in this complex world and develop a more conscious relationship with ourselves and our environment.
Although the professional title is not legally protected, the role of the Meditation Instructor has gained increasing recognition in recent years. A certified and well-founded training programme provides the methods and expertise required to design professionally tailored meditation offerings.
The role of a Meditation Instructor is to teach meditation and mindfulness techniques while simultaneously coaching people towards a healthier lifestyle: refining body awareness, calming the mind, strengthening mental resilience, and enhancing physical vitality.
Meditation instructors work in a wide variety of settings: they teach in their own studios, with psychologists, in associations, hospitals, and other therapeutic institutions.

Workbook as an e-book
by Marion Neises
In the modern world, more and more people meditate in order to improve their physical and mental health or to cope with illness. Meditation can help reduce harmful habits such as alcohol or drug addiction, as well as everyday dependencies like excessive consumption of sugar, caffeine, or tobacco.
Through meditation, a focused mind and a deeper connection to oneself are cultivated, strengthening control over one’s own mind. It promotes analytical thinking, mental clarity, emotional balance, and supports the release of fears and negative life patterns.
The fruits of the meditative path are joy in life, confidence, contentment, health, and inner peace.
This book serves as the textbook for the WAY Meditation Instructor Training Programme. As part of the video-on-demand training, the workbook is included in the training fee.

A note field under each video lets you record important time codes and personal comments directly. You can rewatch the videos at any time to review content or clarify uncertainties before answering the multiple-choice questions at the end of each chapter.

Because a well-founded training
matters to me
I participated in the 200h/AYA Yoga Teacher Training in Mallorca in November 2015 and was thrilled. The team is simply amazing, and the training was so thorough that it provided me with an excellent foundation for my further yogic journey. I immediately booked the M3 module for January 2016 in Wiesbaden and am really looking forward to it! Many thanks to Marion, Marina, and Jacqueline – you’re fantastic!
I learned so much and gained a lot from the experience, and I’m really excited to lead my very first yoga class. I was lucky to be part of a wonderful group of ten special, lovely people. I already miss everyone… Your program truly enables participants to lead a beginner yoga class within just nine days. What’s especially remarkable is that, despite the full schedule, you always have an open ear for your students. Keep up the great work! I’ll gladly return for M2.
Module 1 of the Yoga Teacher Training – I’m thrilled! It’s challenging, joyful, intensely educational, tirelessly practicing, simply amazing! Thanks to the lovely ladies in my course and the charming young man! Thanks to Marion, your teaching is brilliant! Thanks to Sandy, Kay, Theresa, and Marina, with whom I got to spend the trial day. I’m now even more excited to meet the other trainers.
Ich habe Way über Google gefunden und dann die M2i in Wiesbaden ausgesucht, weil sie halt “am besten in meinen Terminkalender passte”, und bin sehr froh darüber, dass das so gekommen ist. Ich habe wirklich liebe Leute in den Gruppen kennengelernt (schade, dass man manchmal so weit auseinander wohnt) und bin vom WAY-Team richtig mitgerissen worden. Jeder auf seine Art war toll – und ich habe von jedem/jeder lernen und was mitnehmen können. Danke für die tollen 2 Wochen! Ich freue mich schon sehr auf die M3 im Sommer!!!
