Bodymeditation and Krishnamurti

A yoga retreat with Oda Lindner, reg. yoga instructor & therapist

Date: June 26-28, 2015 (Fri. 7 pm to Sun. 4:30 pm)

In meditation we often see the illusionary nature of the ego quite clearly. This clarity may have been established in our minds but has often not yet reached into the deeper layers of our sensations and feelings. Old patterns still tend to draw us back into the ego. Krishnamurti often spoke of the need for clarity in actual, lived situations. This embodied action requires an open, unbiased mind and body.

To transfer the openness we have achieved on our meditation cushion to the clarity of embodied action we may find that the use of meditative sensing and slow, precise Yoga moves greatly assist the opening of frozen habits and feeling. I have called this work “bodymeditation”.

In this workshop we will use bodymeditation and will incorporate some slow Yoga movements and breathing from the Yoga Krishnamurti himself practiced. We will combine sitting, sensing in movement and some of Krishnamurti’s inquiries to experience how clarity can be transferred from the mind into the body.
