This two-hour class is all about returning to the essentials and finding clarity in your meditation journey, offering something valuable for everyone, regardless of where you are on your path.

The NOW meditation Norvy Brandin

Norvy Brandin

Norvy is a certified International ICC-Coach, Chopra Meditation Instructor and transformational coach working with businesses and individuals since 2007. He began his career as a championship speedway racer. In 2010 launched his creative production agency, NB Communication.

During his time as a speedway racer, Norvy became very familiar with dealing directly with fear. It was during one of his races, he was propelled into a moment of absolute “stillness”, where everything moved in slow motion. This experience stayed with him for years. He began to seek the explanation of this “stillness”. First, he learned to meditate. Norvy has studied under numerous world-renowned mystics and spiritual teachers, including Ram Dass, one of the greatest spiritual teachers of our time and author of “Be Here Now”. He also has studied with Dr. Deepak Chopra, holistic health guru and NY Times best selling author with whom Norvy received his certification to teach Primordial Sound Meditation at The Chopra Center in Carlsbad California. He most recently received his advanced certification as a Master of Wisdom and Meditation from internationally acclaimed expert, educator and award winning author, David Ji.

"Learning to meditate with The Now has changed my life, not only having a positive impact on my health, but in small ways altering my awareness and approach so that I find myself guided in the right direction without having to try.

Studio faq

If you want to be able to focus on demand, access calm, have more control over your brain, you’re going to want to meditate. The benefits of meditation are endless and scientifically proven. Visit our ‘Why meditate’ page to learn about all the science and benefits.

You can wear anything you like to The NOW, as long as you can sit comfortably. People come in suits, dresses, yoga pants and everything in between.

The NOW exists to make meditation accessible to everyone. With that in mind, we have chairs, two types of cushions (zafu and zabuton), and backjacks (for extra back support) for you to choose from. We also have chairs for your convenience. 

Thinking is natural in meditation. In fact, the practice is noticing what you’re thinking, being aware of what you’re thinking, and then redirecting your focus to a single focal point that your teacher will guide you to. Think of it like bicep curls but for your brain. The more you do this the more you will actually strengthen and grow your brain.

We ask that you arrive at least 10 minutes before the class starts so you have plenty of time to get settled. Otherwise, for busy classes, if you have booked but not shown up 5 minutes before the class, we might need to allocate your spot to our waitlist.

That’s okay. We won’t hit you with a stick (like they would at a zen monastery). Here, we just ask you to move mindfully to reposition.
