  • Don't just do something - sit there!

    A chance to sit for three hours in meditation.  The real discipline of Yoga lies not in body movements, but in learning to observe the mind and getting out of the habit of identifying with the things the mind fancies.  The route is through stillness meditation.  

    Deep extended meditation can improve health and well-being, immunity, concentration and learning.  This extended meditation session allows you to delve into the stillness at the heart of the deepest spiritual state of the individual, and will promote a sense of wellness and self fulfilment.  You won't know how good it is unless you try it!

    There will be short breaks to stretch the muscles - and it's okay to wriggle or adjust if you need to.
     
    Note:  If you are under the care of a mental health provider, especially for psychotic illness, you must bring a note of approval from that person.

    Blissouts for 2022

    Friday 19th August 2022
    Friday 7th October 2022

    Blissouts are at 2/6 The Highway, Mount Waverley, Friday night from 7-00pm. CPD points apply.

  • Blissout is the lovely name we give to a longer meditation sit of 3 hours
    You might think, “Oh! I could never sit so long. I’d get a cramp!

    Not so. Between each hour there will be a 2 minute break for moving your body – though in silence. And at the end, a light supper of chai and biscuits, (or anything else that some folks might bring to share)

    Proviso

    There is one proviso, though. If you have a diagnosis of some mental health problem, for instance major depression, or schizophrenia, please talk to your provider about whether this program is advisable for you.

    Just occasionally, a person’s mind might decide that something else is preferable to simple stillness, and distract them from it with unpredictable alternatives. Remember, this is about just sitting still, it is not something for the mind to to.

    Is it at the Studio or on-line?

    After a couple of years, now it will be both in the Studio at Mt Waverly, and also online
