Somatic meditation – becoming one with your body
- A half-day workshop exploring meditation exercises from Tibetan yoga
- Josh Gale
- Workshop, Yoga
Somatic meditation is about working with the body as the foundation of meditation practice. Rather than a mental and spiritual orientation towards meditation, somatic meditation is a bottom-up approach in which the body is key. With a combination of somatic meditation and yoga, we can open our awareness and experience the wisdom and intelligence of the body. The body and mind unify, give us a clarity and joy. During this half-day workshop we will explore meditation exercises from Tibetan yoga while lying, sitting and moving.
