Introductory course for Insight (mindfulness) Meditation in Jerusalem with Inbal Halali-Beles
"Quality of Attention"
Introductory course for Insight (mindfulness) Meditation
With Inbal Halali-Blass
The course will start Wednesday October the 22nd 2014
8 sessions, every Wednesday, 18:00-20:00
Adress: Kremnitski 1 (Borochov 23 streetcorner), Jerusalem
The course is held for two hours every Wednesday for 8 weeks, sessions in which the participants will gradually aquire the skills needed for basic attention and mindfulness. The course will include practice, study and conversation. The heart of the practice is the development of the quality of attention which allows us to see our reality clearly, as it is. Mindful attention is a subtle ability aquired through training of the mind.
The sessions will address the personal practice at home and accompany the participants in forming the habit of practice within the context of our daily lives. We'll experiment with being attentive to various aspects of our experience - including the bodily sensations, emotions and thoughts, and learn to center ourselves in our inner peace.
The course is meant both for beginners and for those who wish to refresh and strengthen their personal practice, and is a great solution for those who can't manage coming to a residential silent retreat but are still curious about the practice of Vipassana and about Buddhist wisdom.
