Open mindfulness and meditation exercise group
The monthly meeting is intended for people who already have experience with mindfulness and meditation.
Shared Dharma practice and exchange among like-minded people, with the aim of promoting and deepening awareness and wisdom in everyday life.
Our approach
Mindfulness and meditation are understood as a more conscious encounter with life, not as a retreat. The temporary concentration of attention on a single object and the development of a comprehensive, open awareness deepen, sharpen and broaden perception. The basic attitude of our practice is patient acceptance of what we encounter in this awareness. Our focus is on cultivating a relaxed and clearly conscious awareness in the present moment, even beyond meditation. Relaxed practice without thoughts of achievement.
Process
The evening usually begins with silent sitting, followed by a mindful walk in the garden. After this, the group discusses their own experiences as well as everyday practice and Dharma issues that are currently on the agenda. Depending on requirements, the schedule is agreed and adapted at the beginning of the class.
