Zen Yoga, Zen Mind The Buddha taught of the four foundations of mindfulness: mindfulness of the body, of sensations, of the mind, and of thoughts. In this this workshop led by Mark Westmoquette, we'll explore these four aspects in both movement and stillness. In the first half we will look at a flow yoga sequence designed to wake up your body, flex your spine and bring an awareness to your breath, moving towards a state of mindfulness within the movement. This zen yoga practice will naturally lead to an open, curiousness about the breath and its relationship to our mind and body. We'll then have a look at a breath-centred mindfulness meditation practice from the Zen tradition to explore this breath-mind-body connection further, and how this can lead to a deeper awareness of the present moment. This workshop is suitable for both those new to yoga or meditation and those who have a regular practice. Saturday 16th November 10:00-12:00, ZenYoga, Camberwell, ?18 (to book go to http://www.youruniverseyoga.co.uk/yoga-class-schedule.html#workshops)
