Hi all,
This is for now just a private event held on my own plot in Neufreistadt (by the valley) and completely improvised If there is interest, I might be able to do it again on a more public place, but I wished it to appear on the SL Events list — https://secondlife.com/my/community/eve ... id=5168128
Here is the blurb:
People have all the sorts of crazy ideas about what meditation is and what it's good for. From simple relaxation, or for suppressing thought and emotions, to enjoying visions in a "trace state", the word "meditation" has been used to describe all sort of insane "experiences", most of which related to a form of escapism, with a more or less "mystical" or "esoteric" dressing.
Meditation as a means to render oneself more functional in daily life tends to get far less attention. In this short session, a 2600-year-old technique will be shown that has little in common with what vulgarly is thought as "meditation": a method to train one's mind to be more alert, more present, get better memory, and allow oneself to deal with daily issues in a more clever way. It's rather easy to learn and just requires a few minutes every day to gather some benefits.
It doesn't matter what your background is: you don't need to be "spiritual" or a "believer" to train your mind.
