The Subtle Presence - A study and practice course on meditation, and an evening of yoga music with Jack Harrison
From Andrea
‘Meditation is one of the fundamental practices of yoga but often the least easy to study and perform. Yet in everyday life there are times when we are present in a simple and accessible way. Meditation teaches us to capture these brief moments and to expand them, increasing the level of inner body attention and revealing what is not needed. Personally, the practice has led me to clearly recognize the character inclinations and patterns that I tend to reproduce as defense mechanisms or when I want to reach an objective. But for me meditation has been much more. It has helped me find a quieter and simpler “me”, beyond identifications or aspirations. A silent presence that always welcomes me without any judgment.
This meditation course is designed to guide students into building a meditative practice that is regular and easy to perform at home, studying the different levels of the process and addressing difficulties as they arise during the practice.’
