Becoming an IAM Teacher
Instructor Training #3, "Map Instructor"
The material in this course concerns the nine stages of adult
development. IAM's commitment is to lead a student through these
nine steps, although no one can predict how long the complete
process will take.
Progress may be rapid at the beginning and then slow dramatically,
or the path may be difficult early on and get easier. Generally
there is one step where one's paradigm
is severly challenged that requires several years.
The Map of the steps on the path to fulfillment is a great
asset to our school. It guides the teacher, as the teaching
process has to change at each step the student takes, and it
allows the student to measure his/her progress.
- The Five Stages of Mystical Experience, from the
very beginning to the ultimate human experience.
- The Nine Steps of Adult Development
- The Nine Steps of Relationships
- The Nine Steps of Professional Leadership
- The Further Nine Steps of Service to God and
Humanity
- How to help yourself and others to advance to
the next step

Instructor Training #5, "IAM Certified Teacher"
The relationship of teacher and student. Advanced teaching
techniques.
While mind-based meditation is easier to teach (one
school says learning their meditation is about as hard as
learning how to brush your teeth), heart-based meditation
is more difficult, comparable to learning how to swim.
A teacher of Heart Rhythm Practice is going to show others
how to do something they don't think they can do: actually
feel their heart beating, and use that rhythm to regulate
their breath.
Consequently, the requirements for teacher certification
are comparable to becoming a lifesaver swimmer.
To become a teacher, you will need to demonstrate expertise in
Stages 1 through 3 of Heart Rhythm Practice,
The physiological signals of each stage,
Leading a group in meditation and discussion, and
Explaining the theory of how HRP works, physically, emotionally
and spiritually.
