The Heart of Meditation
The Heart of Meditation:
Exploring the Depths of Your Practice
the 4-week online Course Begins April 8, 2026
with Susanne Ahlendorf and Martin Bruders
Deepen your connection with the most essential element of your being.
Listening to wisdom of your heart will help you access a way of being in the world that is more compassionate and more loving to yourself and others.
In this 4-week online course, you’ll explore the emotional layers of the heart and learn meditation practices to help you consistently access a peaceful and resourced inner space. By resting in the heart with conscious awareness, you’ll learn to meet yourself and the world with more openness, presence, and empathetic awareness.
This is an experiential course where we’ll meet online each week to explore another aspect of the heart. You’ll gain tools and practices that you can use to enrich your meditation practice and carry into your daily life.
The principles for practicing meditation include:
- Synchronizing body, mind, and emotions
- Promoting self-acceptance
- Accepting that difficulties are part of the path
- Cultivating awareness of the present moment
- Exploring how you look at yourself within your meditation
This course will be led by Thomas Hübl’s authorized instructors, Martin Bruders and Susanne Ahlendorf, and is open to all levels of experience, from beginners to longtime practitioners. Whatever your profession or lifestyle, we believe anyone can benefit from a meditation practice.
“Mindfulness and meditation are essential to help us slow down, digest, and integrate the experiences of our lives.”
Thomas Hübl
What You'll Receive
Martin and Susanne have prepared specific meditation practices to help you access the heart’s deep, emotional, and energetic wisdom. You will be invited to call upon the guardian of the heart, honoring its protections built over time, and ask for permission to access the deeper layers of your humanity.
You will be guided to a place of stillness. This is known as the entrance gate, where our life energy communicates with the soul.
