Welcome to this year’s first morning meditation. This session will be hosted via ZOOM on Tuesday, January 13th, at 9.30AM CET and will last for about 40 minutes. (30 minute meditation, 10 minute check-in) The link will be active from about 9.20AM. What to expect? I will be keeping time by telling you a story about a molecule of oxygen whose death creates the conditions for the birthing of a molecule of carbon dioxide. In BMC®, this story is known as the story of cellular breathing. During this time, you will hopefully be(come) able to take care of yourself alongside others. ALONE TOGETHER, TOGETHER ALONE. This may require that you join the circle in a seated meditation. This may require that you rest on your back, with eyes closed. This may require that you pick up your drawing materials, or brush your teeth while putting your socks on. The way I’m thinking about it, this meditation is embodied with every inhale and every exhale. As long as we help each other keep our attention expand and contract with our breathing for 30 minutes, the rest is up to us. It can be as colourful and dynamic as we’d like it to be. I’m thinking it could be nice to have 10 minutes at the end there to check in. This part is not mandatory. None of it is, really. Come as you are! Join if you’d like. I’ll be there, telling the story, and breathing. ALONE TOGETHER, TOGETHER ALONE. if questions remain, reach me via pavleh@gmail.com BMC® and Body-Mind Centering® are registered service marks of Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen, used with permission.
