Lição 1
Thin Places: Profound Connection
On Day 1, we visit Ireland to connect with a sense of the profound, immersing ourselves in one of the world's "Thin Places" Together we'll reflect on those places in the world, that hold a special kind of energy. And through a deeply calming grounding practice, find root in a place meaningful for us.
Lição 2
Joining With Gold: Healing And Resilience
On Day 2 we travel to Japan to explore the beautiful art of "Kintsugi" a wonderful mindful metaphor for healing, wisdom, and resilience. We accept that life falls apart sometimes and by "joining with" our gold, the visible scars can be symbolic of the road we traveled. We'll share the benefits of reframing failure or failing relationships. And together, we'll "join with gold" in a healing breath meditation.
Lição 3
The Open Air Life: Roam In Nature
On Day 3, we'll roam to remote places, embracing the Norwegian "Open Air Life" and learn why this outdoor lifestyle habit can benefit our physical, mental, and emotional well-being. With some prompts, we'll investigate our opportunities to enjoy this. And through a body and breath practice, go beyond any limitations or restrictions, to find our solitude and deeper connection in nature, and within.
Lição 4
Inner Deep Listening: Within, Others And Nature
On Day 4, we reach Australia to learn how the Aboriginal Australian practice and wisdom of "Dadirri" [Da-did-ee] has helped them cultivate "Inner deep listening" for generations. And together we'll explore connections with mindfulness - how we too can bring a patient, non-judgmental, and listening presence, to what arises within. To others and nature too. We'll finish with a mindful deep listening and breathing practice, sharing self-compassionate gestures in moments of difficulty.

Nice short course with plenty of thoughts from around the world on ways to connect during meditation. Nice for beginners or as a tool for more advanced meditators using the beginner’s mind.

the notion of thin places has resonated with me for some time, so having a course that delves into this topic is welcome! I loved the different perspectives and cultures presented, including real physical spaces (Ireland and Norway) and the arts woven into cultural traditions (Japan). I hope more “thin place” conversations are coming! 🥰🙏🏼
