Course overview

Hetherington separates foundational explanation from guided practice and later clarification. The course considers concentration and practical ways to sit, with audio material that learners can revisit. It offers a direct introduction to establishing a routine rather than an advanced retreat program or a comprehensive history of contemplative traditions.

What you will learn

  • Understand introductory concentration practice
  • Use guided audio for repeated sessions
  • Review common practice questions

Who this suits

A fit for a beginner who wants explanation and reusable practice recordings, with the option of a cushion, chair or another comfortable setup rather than a fixed cross-legged posture.

Before you enroll

The listed requirements include a digital device for audio and a suitable sitting or resting option. No prior meditation knowledge is needed. About two hours and two minutes of video are listed, updated October 2025. The material is educational; emotional or wellbeing claims are not a substitute for individual professional care.

Udemy offers paid purchase or subscription access depending on the current course and region. Paid teaching courses provide completion certificates under Udemy’s policy. Check current access terms and any separate software or material costs before enrolling.

Put it into practice

Repeat one suitable guided audio exercise several times and keep brief notes about the instructions. Review a clarification lesson when a question appears instead of increasing session length to chase a promised result.
