Enhance Self-Awareness and Intimacy

in Love, Work, and Play

 

Come join us as we explore how sensual meditation and movement can support our work in the world, our relationships, and all our creative pursuits. This work is highly individualized, addressing your essential nature, your particular needs, loves, longings, and dreams. Experience quality time with yourself. This is also an excellent opportunity for couples who want to deepen their appreciation of each other.

• Connect with your passion for life and find ways to live it more fully
• Discover natural and pleasurable meditations that you love to do.
• Learn how meditation can lead you into deeper intimacy with yourself and with others.
• Find tools for transforming any emotion into life force and creativity.

  Passion is the power source for meditation. To the extent that meditation is in the service of passion, you will want to do it and will thrive in the practice. People who use meditation to dissociate from the passions, who use it as a kind of valium, often wind up devitalized. They get some inner peace by sacrificing their vitality - and sometimes their relationships as well. We proposed that meditation emerges from passion, from a passionate engagement with life's dynamics.

  Ordinary people invent and reinvent all of the most secret and sacred meditation techniques, the same ones taught by the ancient meditation schools. This is because the current of revelation is always flowing through humanity. Our nervous systems were designed to channel this kind of inventiveness.

  When you put your attention right into the heart of your cravings, your deepest passions, you will find yourself inventing meditation techniques appropriate to you in the moment. Then you will know that meditation truly comes from within and leads to an integration of the inner and outer worlds.

  By joining together in this workshop, we create a synergetic field of inquiry and revelation.

All these energies are movements of passion, and together provide keys to being a full and vibrant human being. The particular balance of these qualities embodied in you is what makes you unique. How can such disparate elements coexist in one little person? How can you embrace the rich spectrum of these powerful energies without numbing out, going crazy, or destroying everything around you? How can you ride this life force into deeper connection with yourself and others?

Surprising answers to these questions lie deep within your body and psyche, the source of profound wisdom, intelligence, and healing. Through natural movement, meditation, and subtle body awareness, we will unlock and integrate this precious information. Over the weekend, you will discover customized practices to take home with you &endash; ways of meditating, moving, and being aware in daily life that suit you and that you absolutely love to do. Enhance your capacity to receive from life, and to give what is yours to give, enriching your health and satisfaction in your relationships, work, and play.
