About the event
This workshop is led by Master Tan, a Traditional Thai Massage healer and teacher. It will give participants the opportunity to learn about and practice some of the foundations of meditation originating from the Buddha’s teaching. These foundations will help us to become present in our daily lives and aware of our most everyday actions, understanding the sense of how meditation philosophy can be applied. You will also learn more about the potential for meditation we all have within us and how to acknowledge your body through meditation.
In this workshop you will learn the fundamentals of meditation, which originates from Buddhist teachings and is the most popular and researched form in the West. You will learn the most important of the Satipatthan (the classic teaching on the Four Foundations of Mindfulness; the Buddha instructed his monks and nuns to know their bodies "up from the soles of their feet and down from the top of the hair".
Quotes from former workshop Participants:
"Realising I could take just a moment to rebalanced was fabulous. Revisiting mindfulness and realising that it was close to meditation gave me a nudge to get going again."
"I learnt that Thai teaching is so in sync with mindfulness, and that intrigued me. I really enjoyed the teaching about yoga. I have tried on many occasions to do yoga classes over the years and always after a few weeks developed a cough. Now I understand real yoga.”
“I have learned that you can apply meditation to your daily activities and that I don't have to sit cross-legged which I can only achieve for short periods!”
“I have learned the importance of keeping the spine erect particularly when sitting and smiling!!”
