Rachael Sardelich Vedic Meditation & Creative Mentoring -

Shane Beck

Where do I start! I recently had the pleasure of receiving instruction from the divine Rachael, who introduced me to the Vedic tradition. From the ceremony where I received my mantra, through to the carefully explained scientific theory behind Vedic Meditation and why it is so beneficial, everything was very carefully planned and paced by Rachael. I have practised meditation before, but this was my first introduction to Vedic Meditation, and the simplicity of the practise immediately resonated with me. I would whole heartedly recommend this to anyone who needs to manage stress better or just wants more joy in their lives!

Have you heard the advice to ‘surround yourself with people who feel like sunlight’? - not only is Rachael one of these people, she also helps the rest of us become this sunlight for others too.
It’s coming up to the one year mark since I first met Rachael and took her advanced technique course. I had been meditating for years but had fallen into a pattern of struggle with my practise. Rachael did a refresh with me, I took her advanced technique course and later learnt the art of rounding with her. All of which have helped me find my flow and feel lighter again. During this time Rachael has been nurturing, positive, encouraging and has shared so much of her knowledge. She has brought people together through group meditation, shown generosity and a true gift for holding space for others. I love the way Rachael creates multi sensory experiences which help me take my practice into my everyday life. Meditating helps me move through life’s ups and downs as a busy teacher and mother with more grace, compassion, calmness and in-line with my true self and for this I am so grateful. If you’re thinking about learning to meditate or if you’ve already learnt but are looking to connect with a Vedic community or enrich your practise Rachael’s your woman.

I have had the honour of attending one of Rachaels rounding retreats in Gerringong & I continue to attend her weekly group meditations. The rounding experience was exceptional. Rach has a beautiful way of guiding you through your practice, whether you are new to Vedic or an experienced meditator she really caters to all. She does an excellent job at supporting you on your meditation journey and has so much wisdom to offer. I Couldn’t recommend her more!

What can I say about learning to meditate from Rach… truthfully without being corny it has changed everything for me. Meditation was something that really interested me but I never found the right teacher and always came up with excuses not to do it.

Rach was everything I needed in a teacher and friend and the skills she has taught me I will treasure forever.

My job can be stressful but truthfully my busy mind and lifestyle is always crazy… Rach’s practice and teachings have taught me completely how to deal with the ups and downs of life.

I cannot recommend Rachael enough!!!

Rachael (Star)delich, created a humbling mediation experience. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is looking to begin a journey in meditation or heighten their knowledge. The experience was practical, insightful, true to me and scientific. I walked away confidentially with the tools to mediate daily and bring this practise into my everyday life. Rachael has great qualities for teaching this practice; she is relatable, spiritual, a metaphorical thinker who makes you feel at home and unjudged. Get your comfys on, sit down with Rachel and drink up all the yummy tea and knowledge you are given with care and compassion. Thanks again and again.

Rach's weekend Vedic course was everything I needed to learn how to deepen my meditation practice and experiencing the peaceful, calming flow on effects from that. She delivers the course so beautifully with adequate space between sessions to fully digest and reflect on the content. And the opening ceremony is such a special way to set the space. Can't recommend this course and the benefits you'll receive from it highly enough!

I knew I needed to learn the practice of Vedic Meditation, prior to learning I was being driven by my thoughts and felt overwhelmed and at times helpless. When you’re operating from a place of fear and hustle or being the version of the person you ‘think’ you need to be you can’t be connected or compassionate to yourself or the people around you, as there just isn’t any space. You’re too busy trying to find security for yourself. Everything felt a bit heavy and mixed up, coupled with lots of overthinking

I didn’t have a consistent practice of meditation and any that I had was during a yoga class or guided app. I hadn’t committed to a practice, when I sat still my thoughts would run and so I thought ‘I can’t meditate’… until I learnt Vedic, understanding that our thoughts won’t stop and that we welcome them and let them pass, that we do not need to focus on breathing or sit in lotus and rather we are gifted with a ‘Mantra’ – and that is our anchor point. We simply need to welcome this manta each time we wander… only a week or so into my daily practice and I feel I have space, it has bought space into my everyday life because I can see where compassion is needed and my thoughts feel more organised, considered

Rach is a soulful teacher, she embodies everything she teaches, she is compassionate, kind and able to hold the space for you whilst you are learning and be there as an ongoing support. Rach is highly knowledgeable in this space and can articulate in a way that is easy to understand the importance of a consistent practice – I believe doing this work is essential to living, thank you Rach – you are a gift , keep spreading your light

Rachael is a beautiful human. Her depth of knowledge and utter passion for what she does is infectious, I'm excited to be on this journey with Rachael and Vedic Meditation.
