Yoga and Meditation
Sunday November 9th, 2008.
Traditionally, meditation was seen as the goal of a successful yoga practice. While physical postures and breathing tone the body, boost the immune system and balance the emotions, these benefits were seen as secondary to achieving a balanced and focussed state of mind.
This workshop will allow you to experience the effects of Hatha Yoga upon your meditation practice. Following an extended Hatha Yoga practice of 90 minutes, with Hatha Yoga Teacher Liam Byrne, you will learn two basic meditation practices that will enhance physical and mental stillness, and enable you to live more fully in the present, with Mindfulness Trainer, Fidelma Farley.
The workshop will be divided naturally into rest periods with plenty of opportunity to ask questions, stretch the legs and refresh body and mind as you go deeper into the practice.
The duration of this workshop will be three hours with a cost of Eur 40.
