After 15 years of practice and inner work, I’ve really come to realise the experiences of life not only creates strong emotions and energy within our bodies; we also place that energy into our social relations and communities. I think most of the time many of us are not even conscious of doing so.
The purpose of this workshop is to recognise and connect to these emotions and energies through reflecting on personal experience of the Eight Worldly Winds (pleasure/pain; gain/loss; praise/blame; fame/disrepute). This will be achieved by drawing on practices from my recent studies.
The aim is to continue to develop compassion for ourselves and others as we experience the energies that come through the body and drive our social relationships and community engagement.
A potential outcome might be that participants begin to acknowledge skilful and unskilful ways of meeting this energy and being in the world.
It will be a day of meditation, reflection and movement, as well as sharing in small groups and writing exercises.
