(lat. meditatio = ‘to think, ponder, reflect’) is a spiritual practice practised in many cultures and religions, through which the mind can calm and collect itself. The effect of meditation, the meditative state, can be measured neurologically as a change in brain waves. The heartbeat slows down, breathing deepens and muscle tension is reduced.
Courses by Katja Anderssohn: Meditation at rest and in motion
In this course, you will immerse yourself in different meditation techniques to find out which one suits you and your circumstances best. Together we will try out different approaches from yoga, eurythmy and anthroposophy and you will have the opportunity to recognise your own preferences and find the right technique for certain life situations.
Courses by Michael Marxen: Breathing meditation with preparatory yoga
Meditation modelled on the Buddhist Vipassana meditation is introduced practically and theoretically. Yoga asanas (postures) serve as preparation for meditation. Prolonged sitting is difficult for beginners. We therefore use walking meditation and yoga poses from the Iyengar yoga style to prepare the body and mind for sitting and to promote seated practice.
