Introduction to Meditation Part 2
4 week program for advanced meditators
This program is for former participants of the 'Introduction to Meditation - Develop Your Personal Meditation Practice' or for people who have already gained experience with meditation. It is also possible to book a one-on-one lesson with the instructor to prepare for this training.*
In this trauma-sensitive meditation training for advanced students, we will first recapitulate the experiences with meditation from the first part of the course. What experiences have been made in meditation, what obstacles have arisen?
In the further course of the course, in addition to awareness as the goal of meditation, the focus is on equanimity. How can I respond with serenity and knowledge with experiences both inside and outside?
On the 4 evenings we will get to know different topics in meditation. These include:
Week 1: Anapanasati - meditation with the breath
Week 2: Vipassana - insight meditation
Week 3: Upekkha - equanimity, serenity
Week 4: Mudita, Metta & Karuna - compassion, kindness and empathy
Meditation helps:
Being present in everyday life
Dealing with internal and external challenges in life
Grow (self-)awareness
Cultivate serenity
To extend the attention span
Reduce stress and anxiety
Promote emotional and physical health (including sleep)
This course is part of a two-part meditation training course. Both parts can be booked individually or together. If you would like to start with the basics, we recommend you begin with: Introduction to Meditation - Part 1.
Meditation is not a panacea. If you have a pre-existing mental illness, please contact the course instructor before registering to assess whether meditation is suitable for your case.
