Stillness in Motion, Motion in Stillness

“Meditation,” Sharon Salzberg writes in Real Happiness, “is the ultimate mobile device; you can use it anywhere, anytime, unobtrusively.”

Many practitioners who experience relative stillness while sitting, however, lose it upon rising from the cushion. This practical, engaging, and inspiring daylong workshop brings together two teachers who have each been exploring the relationship of stillness in motion and motion in stillness for more than 40 years.

You will learn how to:

•Bring more ease, flow, and joy to your meditation practice
•Move from an experience of grace and inner peace when off the cushion
•Release habitual thoughts and associated patterns of movement to discover a wellspring of wisdom, vitality, and love

Transform both your meditation practice and your life off the cushion in this uplifting program.

Note: Suitable for complete beginners and advanced meditation practitioners.

This live event requires ZOOM webinar software, which you will be automatically prompted to download upon clicking the access link provided to you in your confirmation and reminder emails. Zoom is an easy to use webinar software available for Mac OS X, Windows, iOS and Android. Installation should only take a moment.
