Sitting On the Shores of Breathing

Breathing has been happening for millions of years, has sustained life for millions of years. Ants, do it, elephants do it, trees do it, each in their own way.
This meditation is not about paying attention - but about paying our respects for this aspect of nature. It’s also about connection, about exchange, give and take.

The Tuesday Meditations are guided meditations. We simply sit (and walk or move) in the presence of what is alive in and around us. They are not a Sensory Awareness class, though the approach is similar, a Sensory Awareness approach to insight meditation, usually a spontaneous improvisation on a theme requested by the participants. The general format is 20 minutes sitting / 10 minutes walking / 20 minutes sitting.

While the 50 minutes are a whole, you can also just stay for the first part until the walking and/or do the other parts at a different time.
