5 Pillars of Stillness Meditation Touch Therapy


    Owen teaches the 5 pillars Stillness Meditation Touch Therapy system as the late Dr Ainslie Meares taught it to him and wrote about it in his many books and papers. The 5 elements Owen calls pillars are: 

P1. Solo Stillness Meditation.

P2. Meditation progression. Incremental addition of slight difficulty. 

P3. Living in calm and ease, even in the face of difficulty.

P4. Meditation support factors. 

P5. Stillness powered meditative touch therapy.


People ask Owen why he teaches 5 pillars and why some teachers don't. This is also relevant to why "SMT" and I parted ways. It is discussed here


Does theory really matter?

    Theory is important. But, only if put into practice. 

     Remember, that every human has the ability to still the mind. It is just that culture, tension and anxiety sometimes weaken it. Practically anyone can learn to experience Stillness in meditation, and calm and ease in daily living. It is only experiencing it that really counts! Each step down the path makes the next step easier. The 5 pillars pave the way to a better life.
