Active Meditation Sampler • Dynamic — Mon., May 5, 9 am • Kundalini — Wed., May 14, 6 pm • Nataraj — Wed., May 21, 6 pm • All in Bamboo Room

For many of us, it is a lot easier to relax and quiet our minds if we begin with movement, breathing, and releasing tension and pent-up emotions. What better time than NOW to explore this sampler series of supportive techniques to help you stay calm, grounded, and peaceful during these turbulent times!

These meditations can be practiced with lots of energy or modified to suit your personal level, allowing you to move slowly or sit when needed. Each meditation session listed below will be accompanied by music and last about 30 minutes for the starter series. Traditionally, they run for an hour. If there is enough interest, we will continue with more sessions; if not, this will be a one-time offering. If you are interested but unable to attend, please let Inga Grace know at ingagrace@hotmail.com or text with questions at 415-533-9088.

3 Sessions in May • Bamboo Room

Monday, May 5 • 9 am • Dynamic Meditation
This is a technique involving moving the body while meditating, progressing through five stages — deep breathing, cathartic release, movement, stillness, and gentle dance — to release tension and held emotions. It is an energizing morning meditation.

Wednesday, May 14 • 6 pm • Kundalini Meditation
Accompanied by music, this meditation unfolds in four stages — shaking, dancing, standing or sitting in stillness, and relaxing. Ideal for the afternoon.

Wednesday, May 21 • 6 pm • Nataraj Meditation
The energy of dance. This is dance as a total meditation in three stages — dance, relaxation, and a gentle return to dance — where all inner division disappears and a subtle, relaxed awareness remains.
