Meet Your Teacher

During her 23-year career as a journalist and senior executive at the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, Joh discovered Vedic Meditation while experiencing grief and burnout. The practice helped her recover and rediscover her enjoyment of life and work, inspiring her to teach others.
In 2014, Joh trained as a meditation teacher in the Shankaracharya tradition. The following year, at 49, she left the ABC, sold her Sydney home and moved to New York to teach Vedic Meditation full-time.
In 2020, Joh began teaching at Rikers Island through her nonprofit organisation, The Light Inside. Her work has since expanded to other US correctional facilities.
Her teaching is practical and relaxed, with room for questions and ongoing support as students establish a regular practice. What she loves most is helping people make meditation a lasting part of their lives.
A program evaluation involving 275 of Joh’s students found average improvements of nearly 50% in sleep quality and ability to manage stress, and 25% in wellbeing, within the first four days of learning. For those who remained in the study for the following six weeks the improvements were maintained. You can read the report here.

Twenty Minutes, Twice A Day
Meditate when you wake up and again later in the day.
Sit With Your Back Supported
The mind naturally settles into quieter states, while the body rests deeply.
Effortlessly Think A Mantra
Close your eyes and gently think a mantra selected for you by your teacher.
There is no stopping thoughts.
Learning Vedic Meditation Is Easy
01 Start with a free introductory session
This is a relaxed, low-pressure way to understand how Vedic Meditation works and why it’s easy to learn and practice, even with a busy, demanding life. You’ll learn the benefits, have space to ask questions, and get a clear sense of whether it’s right for you, before committing to anything.
02 Learn the practice in four simple sessions
If you decide to continue, you’ll learn the technique with Joh over four 90-minute sessions across four consecutive days. The process is clear, efficient, and designed to fit into real life, with no lifestyle changes required. The course fee is calculated on a sliding scale.
03 Practice independently, with lifetime support
Once you’ve learned, the technique is yours for life. You’ll have ongoing access to free follow-up support, group meditations, and a global community of meditators in New York, Sydney, Adelaide, and beyond.
