Descriere & specificații

Do you meditate? Do you have a body? Embodied Meditation can help you bring the two together beautifully. The way mindfulness is usually taught reflects the disembodiment of the modern world. Often meditation is taught without pleasure, free-flow or the body at all. Even the translated term "MINDfulness" reflects this. Sadly, this misses a lot of what makes meditation so powerful, and ensures it doesn't integrate into daily life. Throughout this refreshing take on meditation, Mark and Karin draw on their experience from the world of martial arts, dance and yoga. They offer a clear, no-nonsense and humorous roadmap to making your meditation more embodied. This books contains techniques suitable for: People newer to meditation who want a clear, practical system Movement lovers (e.g. yogis and dancers) who want an approach to meditation that fits well with their skills Experienced meditators who want to go deeper into embodiment You'll learn: How most meditation is disembodied A guide to the most common meditation challenges (including distraction, sleepiness and trauma) Over 30 embodied techniques (many that you won't find anywhere else) The most impactful and practical techniques for busy people (and how to build a regular practice around your lifestyle) A practical 'bridge' to bring meditation into your day-to-day life (work, childcare, sex, computer use, etc.) Promise: If you meditate, there will be something fresh and useful here to help deepen your practice.
