Our minds are usually filled with all kinds of thoughts: information from outside such as TV, the internet, printed media, what our teachers, parents, and friends said to us, and our feelings and reactions to them.
If you learn how to calm your mind and listen to the voice from within, then you will find it much easier to concentrate on the “here and now”, and it will gradually become clearer what is the right thing for you to do in all kinds of situations.This workshop is for those who are interested in meditation and wish to learn some exercises that can be used at home for regular practice.
Both beginners and experienced mediators are welcome to participate.For this English language event, a Czech guest with experience teaching meditation internationally and a part time instructor at Waseda specializing in intercultural communication will coordinate the session.
*Note: This is a meditation activity not related to religion.
*Participants are asked to turn off their cell phones during the event.
