Bodymeditation and Krishnamurti
A weekend retreat with Oda Lindner,
Sept 8 – 10, 2017 (Friday: 7 pm – Sunday 4:30 pm)
Oda Lindner is a registered yoga therapist and instructor who trained with Desikachar, who was also Krishnamurti’s yoga teacher. She is an experienced workshop leader who is passionate about the potential for yoga to create greater awareness in daily living. She lives in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario.
During this weekend workshop we will engage both our body and our mind by using a combination of slow movements and an investigation of different aspects of Krishnamurti’s teachings. We will weave together a deep sense of being in the body with a careful awareness of “seeing what is”.
Our practices will include reflections, meditations and a number of slow yoga sequences which Krishnamurti himself has practiced. During our sessions we may find that the right balance between centeredness and awareness allows us to open to a state of free flow in which we become quiet and settled. This in turn may help us appreciate Krishnamurti’s notion of love, which he describes as a clear state of mind that is free of sorrow.
Weather permitting, sessions will be held outdoors on the lovely Centre grounds.
