The Training Experience
More Than a Meditation Course
Meditation is not only something we practise with our eyes closed. It is a way of becoming more aware of ourselves, our thoughts, our emotions and the way we move through life.
Throughout this training, you will experience meditation through stillness, movement, breath, sound and conscious awareness. Each practice offers a different way to explore your inner world and discover what resonates most deeply with you.
The journey combines meditation philosophy, personal reflection, practical exercises, meaningful discussions and opportunities to ask questions and receive guidance.
Some practices invite deep relaxation, while others encourage concentration, self-inquiry, emotional awareness or a fresh perspective on familiar patterns.
An important part of the training is the personal healing journey. Through different healing processes, meditation and self-inquiry, you will have opportunities to explore emotions, recognise patterns and work through experiences that may be holding you back. These practices create space for greater self-understanding, emotional release and inner transformation.
As the days unfold, you may begin to notice that meditation is much more than a technique. It becomes a way to understand yourself, reconnect with your inner world and bring greater awareness into everyday life.
As Punnu often reminds his students, the purpose of meditation is not simply to become good at meditation, but to become better at living.

Punnu Wasu
Punnu Wasu was born and raised in India in a family deeply connected to spirituality, devotion and Kirtan, and these early influences became the foundation of a lifelong inner journey and a deep exploration of meditation, spiritual practice and holistic healing.
With more than 35 years of experience in meditation, yoga and holistic healing practices, and more than 50 years of experience in Kirtan and singing, Punnu is today an internationally experienced meditation and yoga teacher, Reiki Grand Master, Kirtan singer, multi-instrumentalist and spiritual guide. Before he began teaching, he dedicated more than 20 years to his own personal meditation and spiritual practice, deepening his experience through study, exploration and direct practice. His meditation teaching today draws on decades of personal experience with meditation, breathwork, mantra, self-inquiry, energy work and other spiritual practices.
Rather than asking students to follow one fixed path or accept someone else’s truth, Punnu encourages them to turn inward, explore through direct experience and discover what feels true and meaningful for themselves. For him, meditation is not only about sitting in silence. It is a journey into greater awareness, presence and self-understanding, and a way of becoming more open, alive, joyful and deeply connected to life. His teaching is experiential, open and grounded in curiosity, creating space for students to explore deeply while developing their own relationship with meditation and spiritual practice.
Punnu also sees himself as a lifelong student of life. He continues to practice, learn and explore, and loves discovering new approaches, experiences and perspectives that can deepen both his own journey and his teaching.
Based between Bali and Switzerland, Punnu teaches globally, both in person and online.
At the heart of his approach is a simple invitation: travel within, explore deeply and discover your own truth.

For a long time, I felt a strong calling to go to Bali, without really knowing why. The feeling kept growing until I finally followed my heart. Looking back, I now understand why. After meeting Punnu by chance, I had a few profound private sessions with him, which made me realise that I wanted to join his Meditation Training. It became one of the most important experiences of my life. The training introduced me to a beautiful variety of meditation practices and gave me the powerful tools for everyday life that I had been searching for. It also opened the door to deep inner healing, helping me release emotions I had been carrying for many years. Punnu’s wisdom, compassion, love and guidance made me feel safe and supported throughout this journey. I also found answers to questions I had been carrying within me for years. Since returning home, my mornings have completely changed. Spending time with myself in meditation has become my most precious daily ritual, something I never miss. I am deeply grateful to Punnu for helping me reconnect with myself and discover a sense of inner peace and balance I never knew was possible. Bali called me for a reason, and I am so glad I listened.
