Anchoring in wakeful presence of body and mind
Join us for an exploration of mindfulness and awareness through simple meditation and movement practices from the traditions of Body-Mind Centering® and Shambhala Buddhism. Open to all.
Sitting – breathing – sensing – moving – expressing
Awareness is not a concept. Awareness is an experience.
Awareness is stillness and movement: body and mind breathing, feeling, sensing within the open space of unfolding experience.
With body as our earth, mind as our sky and a vulnerable, communicative heart as the bridge between both, we want to dive with you into the vibrant happy and sad dance of life, longing to express itself in every moment of experience.
We will work with meditation in stillness and movement, guided journeys into the inner landscapes of the body, spontaneous movement improvisation and verbal exchange.
No experience in meditation or body awareness practices required.
Teachers of this program will be Friederike Tröscher and Barbara Märtens.
Both look back on a long journey in their respective traditions. Their curiosity, joy and interest in further development made them aware of each other. Similarities, but especially the natural complements of the traditions in which they each were trained, inspired them to look for ways to weave them together and invite others into the unfolding richness of this process.
