IMMERSION 4 week series
Open To All. Group Session
SOON TO BE ANNOUNCED

NEW SERIES AND CLASSES
Beginners Mind Meditation & Discourse / Instructor: Lila
4 week Immersion Course
120 minutes per class / Total 8.25 hours of instruction

Overview:
The essence of Beginners Mind is the Mind that sages, musicians, poets, artists, scientists, and innovators access and drop into the flow of a clear and emptied mind-stream. Beginners Mind is a natural state of mind, but needs to be cultivated through meditation, and practice disengaging the self-centric egoic mind, improving creativity, clarity of mind, and interaction with others. 
 
Beginners Mind is extremely effective when working in a fast-paced work environment that requires both independent and collaborative, on-the-go, clear-minded, holistic, decision-making. I have relied on this beautiful mind-stream throughout my professional and creative career working within both corporate and personal settings and conducting innovation workshops.  

We will explore various other meditation methods to add to your toolbox, other tools for engaging one's intuition, and exploring our current world of constant change and interaction with people, places and things that come up in work and personal life and what are some of the tools or ways relating to these changing landscapes and employing the Beginners Mind. Class will encourage lively discussion with participants and instructor.

SESSION: Each session will be tailored to the content presented. Typically each two hour class will include an Overview by the instructor, Instruction, Guided Meditation, Q&A, Class discussion; and Closing. Some sessions will be interactive utilizing transformational tools and methods for application to work and personal life. There will be a short break if needed during the two hour session.

Bonus: A Scheduled 20-minute phone appointment with Lila at end of the series. Appointments will be scheduled for the following week. This gives the participants a chance to reflect, apply what they have learned, share, seek advice or explore one's personal meditation practice.

Pre-Requisite Recommended: " Introduction to Meditation Class". If you haven’t already taken this free 1.5 hour class you can take it at the Indigo Center
