Online: Sensing the Subtle Body in the Four Foundations of Mindfulness: Practices to Cultivate Embodied Awareness
 
with Jill Satterfield
 
Fridays, April 8th – 29th, 2022 | 6:00pm – 8:30pm ET
 

 
Sensing the breath or the body isn’t always as easy as it sounds and we aren’t necessarily taught how to be embodied early in our lives.

The Buddha referenced Nama Rupa (mind/body, mentality/materiality) repeatedly in his teachings and stressed the body as a precious resource for awakening. In the Satipatthana Sutta lives a practical and beautifully laid out path to understanding how our minds work, and how the union of body/mind is integral to full understanding and liberation of heart.

Being embodied isn’t necessarily innate but can definitely be cultivated. We can become aware of how a feeling tone feels, how thoughts and emotions are experienced and how the mind can be felt energetically.

This foray into sensing and the subtle body is another portal to explore the teachings and deepen our complimentary and symbiotic abilities to sense and make sense.

All levels of practice are welcome in this class series. Familiarity with the Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta is recommended but not required.
