Tibetan Meditation: A Harmony of Body, Breath and Mind

Friday, Dec. 2, 2016

10:00 AM – 04:00 PM
US/Central

BODY-MIND-AND-SPIRIT-240X240

Learn meditative techniques that foster a holistic sense of wellness for your body, energy, and mind. Supported by seated body movements, the Tibetan meditation practice of Tsa Lung brings together the mind and the breath. The body movements work with different energetic centers (chakras) to provide a sense of embodied meditation, allowing you to connect to your inner wisdom and potential to achieve a relaxed yet aware state of mind. Participants can make this meditation practice part of their daily routine for a healthier lifestyle. Please wear loose, comfortable clothing.
