“Whatever we do, whether we walk, stand or sit, whether we write, speak or remain silent, whether we help or serve, whatever work it may be – everything and everyone holds the opportunity to carry it out in an attitude and mindset that increasingly testifies to, consolidates and expresses our contact with being.”<\/p>\nKarlfried Graf D\u00fcrckheim<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The attempt to give the greatest space to the essential.<\/strong>
What is the \u201cessential\u201d-
in us, in (everyday) life,
in this encounter,
in this activity?
What voices become audible when I become quieter?
What is worth leaving out?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We open up a field of practice<\/strong> in our place.
In this field of practice, we share a daily structure in which we come together in common points of reference.
What effect does it have on you?
How can it support you in your current life context?
Whatever the fruits of our practice are, they should benefit the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Composition of our practice<\/strong>
Our practice is designed to holistically address all 5 of our bodies (physical, vital, emotional, mental, spiritual).
It is made up of elements from the following 3 central fields:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sitting practice<\/strong>
We sit together in silence in the morning (40min, optional 10min walking meditation, 20min) and in the evening (30min). This is the practice framework that spans our day.
We offer each visitor to the practice location an introduction to the sitting posture, a form of attunement meditation (5 bodies) and emptiness meditation (zazen).
You are also invited to follow your own inner practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Somatic practice<\/strong>
Our somatic practice aims to bring more awareness into the various tissues and aspects of our physicality. This is a prerequisite for a deepening spiritual practice that will have an impact in the world.
In weekly classes (Body-Mind Centering\u00ae) we learn to tune into the different tissues and to embody them.
Also weekly, we engage in the Authentic Movement format, in which we give each other a witnessed space in which the movers can follow a self-guided path of the inner body landscape and give expression.
Another pillar of our somatic practice is Contact Improvisation – an improvisational dance form for permeability, disciplined movement exploration in the field of gravity and in contact with other bodies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Relational practice<\/strong>
Influenced by our training with Thomas H\u00fcbl, relational practice is an important pillar of the place. Here we practise refining our ability to tune in.
How can I allow others to witness and accompany me in my process?
In coming together we practise forming larger vessels in which we can process our current and past experiences better than we can alone, forming more fitting answers to the questions the world asks us, finding outer contact in resonance with our essential inner movements.
The most important form in our relational practice is the triad – a format in which one person communicates and the other two listen and resonate in a very specific way. Here <\/a>you can find out more about what this subtle listening is all about.
We are not a therapy center and do not offer therapeutic support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
