Meditation circle

Over dit evenement

Hey there,

This is an invitation for you to come and sit together in silence.

Together we will go for a walk in our inner landscape. We practice a receptive and curious gaze. A seeing and listening that isn't looking for anything or trying to change anything, but just notices whatever there is.

When we sit together, our awareness is strengthened by the collective intention. That's why I love to sit and meditate with others, and that's where this monthly meditation circle was born from.

## Intentions

- To strengthen our individual and collective awareness through sitting together
- To strengthen a sense of community
- To share and learn from eachothers experience (which also happens on a subtle level when we sit together)

## Program

- 10.00-10.15 Arriving
- 10.15-11.00 Meditation, lightly guided if that fits
- 11.00-11.30 Space for tea and connection

## For you?

- You want to deepen or rekindle your practice
- You find it difficult to meditate by yourself, or
- You like to meditate with others
- You want to connect with other meditators in Amsterdam
- For all levels of experience: Even when you've never meditated before, you are most welcome!

## On meditation

In day to day life many of us are used to constantly react and respond to the world around and within us. When we meditate, we learn to just sit and watch. With soft kind eyes we observe whatever arises within our attention. This can help you to become less identified with your thoughts and feelings, and instead helps you return to your true inner nature, opening space for peace, joy and personal freedom.


## About Ludo

I stumbled upon the path of meditation, some ten years ago, and since then it has become one of the building blocks of my foundation for living and operating in this world. I started with Zen, later discovered Vipassana meditation (Goenka), and after that mindfulness. Currently I mostly just sit with what is, practicing non-doing and cultivating inner kindness. Besides meditation I like to make art, dance or climb, and I am currently studying to be a craniosacral therapist.
