Rooted And Rising: The 7 Points Of Meditation Posture
With LisePosture is where you draw your strength and dignity; it’s a well of resources. How can you integrate its wisdom into your practice? How do you navigate all the cues, and how do they affect your quality of presence? In this course, we’ll explore the subtle yet potent effects of the seven points of meditation posture—legs, hands, spine, shoulders, jaw, eyes, and head. We will peel away the layers of chatter around “proper posture” to get to the essence: how each element of posture informs your mind and opens you up to presence. For each lesson, I’ll zoom in on one element of posture, sharing theory, imagery, and a simple practice to help you integrate the focus of the day. With gentle guidance and symbolic language, we will weave these elements together in a bonus practice, creating harmony in posture that supports your inner stillness and presence. This course offers a precise breakdown of the connection between mind and body, one that you can return to regularly, knowing that new insights will emerge each time. Welcome to embark on this 6-day journey to find your roots in the earth and rise with pride.

Meet your Teacher
As a meditation teacher, Lise has her heart set on shifting the paradigm of these practices. Instead of reducing them to well-being techniques, she explores the aliveness and radicality of their philosophy. She's also attentive to how the practice can allow us to better consider both our existence and the great challenges of our society.
