Mental presence

Both mindfulness and Acem Meditation make you more aware of your own thoughts and feelings and thereby help to modify your relationship to yourself and the world. This enhances mental presence and increases awareness of the moment.

Meditation sound

While most mindfulness practices focus on the breath or on body sensations, Acem Meditation is based on the gentle repetition of a meditation sound. This intensifies the relaxation effect and stimulates the ability to act without effort. Scientific studies show marked effects linked to stress reduction.

Freedom for spontaneous thoughts

While mindfulness emphasizes the ability to reduce mind-wandering, Acem Meditation gives more rather than less freedom for spontaneous thoughts. Research indicates that this stimulates brain centres associated with the processing of visual and emotional memories. Typical results include better concentration and improved sleep.

Personal growth

A relaxed and open mind is more likely to let go of established patterns and to embrace new perspectives. By loosening up bodily and mental tensions, Acem Meditation lays the ground for deeper changes in personality.

Non-religious

While many forms of mindfulness maintain links to Buddhist tradition, Acem Meditation is a non-religious technique. The neutrality of Acem Meditation provides a solid basis for the unprejudiced exploration of mind and personality.
