Meditation is sometimes thought of as an esoteric mental practice, but in truth it’s best understood through physical experience. In this introductory class, we will delve into an exploration of the ancient techniques of mindfulness meditation and learn how to apply them to the everyday hustle of our busy lives.
The program will:
• Explore the mind body relationship and its impact on fertility
• Modulate the relationship between stress and successful Assisted Reproductive Therapies
• Include learning an embodied awareness technique
• Practice techniques for opening the heart
• A simple eating meditation that will remind us to be present in daily activities
• Build the capacity to respond to our lives with focus, wisdom and care.
Program Facilitator
Amanda Bilecki has been practicing Vipassana meditation for ten years, since learning to meditate in Bodh Gaya, India with renowned masters. After falling in love with the elegance and power of the practice, she began doing 2-5 month meditation retreats, mostly in Myanmar. She began basic instruction in meditation techniques at the Yellow Springs Dharma Center, and from there began teaching teens to meditate at weeklong residential retreats. Amanda is most excited about bringing a non-judgmental awareness to everyday experiences, so that wisdom and love can grow.
