    Description

    A day of guided mindfulness practice
    Guided by Nolitha Tsengiwe, Rebecca Crane and Mark Williams
    In the midst of the fullness of the conference, we will take a day to step into deeper connection with the immediacy of experience. During the day you will be guided in the various forms of mindfulness practice that are part of mindfulness-based programs, interspersed with some space for first person and collective inquiry into what is being known in experience. To allow space for deeper listening, we will give over some of the time to practising together in silence during both the formal and informal parts of the day. Coming into deeper contact with experience in these ways is tender, and at times is challenging. We need support to do this work - the solidarity and kindness of a community of colleagues and friends practising alongside us, along with the guidance from the teachers will offer the holding space within which to drop into our mindfulness practice: an engagement that is simultaneously deeply personal and individual, and deeply social and collective.
