About the event
Silence and finely tuned meditation instructions in an atmosphere of welcome help us drop out of our programmed ways of operating. As we fall more in touch with our direct experience, we may be surprised by many things: how busy the mind is, how rich our innate capacities already are, how simple and important to meet what we had avoided, how sweet to touch aliveness beyond ideas.
With guidance from the teacher, we practice letting go of what we are not, and allowing what is.
Just as rest allows the cells and mind to renew themselves, so easeful meditation drops us into direct and non-conceptual awareness. There, our old habit-energies gradually and naturally lose momentum without the intense drama that occurs when we try to make things happen.
Life beyond ideas leaves room for spacious joy and powerful shifts that make a real difference in our lives.
