Talwinder Sidhu (Tal), BA, CYT-500 Yoga Teacher Training, TQUK Level 3 - Psychology, TQUK Level 2 - Understanding Autism, Author of the bestseller ‘Meditate: Breathe into meditation and awaken your potential.’
My name is Tal, and I’m a meditation teacher based between Berkshire, UK and British Columbia, Canada.
I work with busy people whose minds rarely switch off, professionals, parents, creatives, fitness-minded individuals, and neurodivergent thinkers who want calm, clarity, and better sleep but struggle to make meditation stick on their own.
My approach to meditation is practical, structured, and results-focused. I teach meditation as a skill you can learn, not a talent you either have or don’t. Most people don’t struggle because they “can’t meditate” they struggle because no one has shown them how to do it in a way that fits real life.
I was introduced to meditation as a child and have spent a lifetime practising, studying, and teaching it. To complement my meditation teaching, I also completed my CYT-500 Yoga Teacher Training, deepening my understanding of breath, body awareness, and nervous system regulation, all of which play an important role in how I guide students into stillness.
Over the years, I’ve taught thousands of students through classes, private sessions, workshops, and retreats, and I’m the author of two bestselling books on meditation. I also hold a TQUK Level 2 Certificate in Understanding Autism, which allows me to make my teaching especially accessible for neurodivergent minds, including those with autism and ADHD.
People often come to me because they:
feel constantly “on” and can’t switch off at night
want to reduce stress and anxiety without medication or mysticism
struggle to sit still or quiet their thoughts
want clearer thinking, steadier emotions, and better focus
need guidance that feels calm, structured, and easy to follow
My teaching is not spiritual, religious, or performative. It’s grounded, simple, and designed to help you build a meditation practice that becomes a natural part of your week — something you rely on, not something you avoid.
Meditation, when taught clearly, becomes a powerful tool for regulating your nervous system, improving sleep, reducing stress, and creating space for clearer thinking and better decisions.
That’s what I help you learn.
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: I am not a therapist, doctor, or counsellor. I do not offer medical, psychological, legal, or financial advice. My work is for education, reflection, and personal development.
