About Us
Advancing education about the practices of meditation and mindfulness with the goal of advancing health, happiness and self-healing for the general public.
Free in-person and online meditation classes
We offer regular in-person classes at low or no-cost to the general public. We are also available on a limited basis to make classes available to non-profit and similarly oriented organisations.
Over time we intend to develop and host virtual resources such as online courses, videos and recorded lectures or guided meditations.
Making meditation available to anyone
RWM Education was established in January 2023 with the goal of making meditation available to as many people as possible.
Classes are mostly taught by Justyn Comer who has been meditating for over 30 years and teaching since 1999. His style is ecumenical, which is to say there is no single style or tradition he teaches, rather a range of techniques to give a broad overview of different types of meditatoin so that people can find what works best for them. His book, Meditation for Life, was a #1 Amazon bestseller in Australia, Canada, the UK and the USA.
our organisation
RWM Education is registered as a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation
In October 2022 RWM Education applied to the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSRC) to be established as a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation. In January 2023 this was approved.
The stated objective of the organisation in its constitution is:
“To advance education about the practices of meditation and mindfulness with the goal of advancing health, happiness and self-healing for the general public.”
The founding trustees were Alice Thompson, Douglas Martin, Justyn Comer and Reed Alpert. Reed had been the driving force behind many of us to take up teaching and we will always be grateful for his inspiration, balance and humour. Unfortunately he died just as RWM Education was coming into being in Scotland.
None of the trustees receive any compensation for services to RWM Education.
