ABOUT KEN MELLOR

Ken Mellor has years of international experience running communities and leading workshops that combine meditative practices with personal growth strategies. He is an inspiring spiritual master and mentor. Always down to earth, he is fun, practical and engaging.

He is a Master of Meditation, a Reiki Master, and a spiritual mentor. He has extensive experience in working with people from many different backgrounds. Ken is also a psychotherapist and trainer of psychotherapists. In 1980 he and a colleague were awared the Eric Berne Memorial Scientific Award for their work on dealing with "discounting" and "redefining", two powerful processes that can create significant problems for people. He is also a prize winning author, most recently with his books Urban Mystic and Inspiration, Meditation and Personal Wellbeing (click here for information).

Together with Elizabeth, his wife, they were recently recognised for their many accomplishments by being accepted for membership of MA (The Meditation Association of Ausralia) in the personal development, medical, and spiritual areas of living and teaching; and were also granted the Siddhartha Award from the Shiva Ashram for their many years as international teachers of meditation. Ken has taught in UK almost every year since 1981 with many hundreds of people attending his workshops in that time. He was recently also awarded the ITAA'S Muriel James Living Principles Award for 2016.

TA Training Workshop
- The Berne Institute (Kegworth)

19th September 2019
(10.00am to 5.00pm)

RELEASING TRANSCENDENT SPIRITUAL ENERGIES - Opening the Crown & Other Centres in the Body

A Workshop with Ken Mellor


In this workshop, Ken will take everyone through a series of energy related meditations. They are designed to activate Chakras (energy centres) in the spine and head. In particular, Ken will concentrate on centres at the base of the spine, at the level of the heart, inside the head, at the top of the head, and on the point between the eyebrows. Each centre carries with it a distinctive type of energy and unique dimensions of perception and understanding.
In other words, each centre is a gateway into a whole universe of different experiences.

These energies help to flood our bodies and conciousness with spiritual vitality and aliveness. They also help to transform boldily, emotional and spiritual awareness with overall awakening.

Meditations such as these have ancient origins that are still powerful in the modern world when introduced to us by someone who has mastered them. Ken has had years of training and practice in developing the necessary skills.

Venue: The Berne Institute, Berne House, 29 Derby Road, Kegworth DE74 2EN, England.
Times: 10.00am to 5.00pm
Contact Person: Adrienne Lee
Telephone: 01509 673649

Fees: £100.00 (for Members of Berne Institute) £120.00 (for non-Members of Berne Institute)

TWO-DAY MEDITATION MASTERCLASS
- Manchester

21st - 22nd September 2019
(9.30am - 5.00pm)

Everyone is welcome.  This workshop is a wonderful opportunity to have the benefits of two full days in a small group with Ken.

Last year, everyone valued the individual attention, and the specific practices Ken devised to enable them to meet their unique needs and to help them to expand their spiritual awakening.

Ken introduced the first of these Master Classes last year (2018). The feedback from everyone was that the two days were fruitful and awakening, especially when Ken taught, individualised ways of maturing and expanding personal meditation practices.

He loves the release people experience with the kind of attention these Master Classes make possible; He is very much looking forward to doing more this year.

INTO SILENCE, STILLNESS AND TRANSPARENCY
Trigonos - Caernarfon, Wales

5th to 11th October, 2019
(9.00am - 9.00pm most days - see below)

In the presence of Life Itself we experience utter silence and transparency. There we can discover our Selves as we never have before. The hunger or thirst to do this is powerful in everyone. Somewhere within, we all know that our completion lies here. We know that we need to 'go in' as 'deeply' as possible, that this is how we need to connect with the Source of Life.

And we can succeed with this simply by paying alert attention as we remain silent and undistracted by others around us, while living through what arises in our silence and aloneness. Eventually we can discover that there is actually nothing to do, that all we need is 'to be'.

We 'go in' by witnessing, by experiencing and by living all the layers in us that are part of our world-bound lives. These layers have developed in us all throughout the years we have lived. Complete physical silence and stillness gives us enough time to explore what is involved. Having sufficient time to do make the discovery is an essential ingredient. This practice promotes the direct experience of our beings beyond our day-to-day experiences.

The workshop gives us extended opportunities to enter silence and reap the rewards.

Venue: The Trigonos Centre, Plas Bala Deulyn, Nantlle, Caernarfon, Wales  LL54 6BW, U.K.
