HUMANIVERSITY AUM MEDITATION with Chandrika & Rajan

BODY, MIND, EMOTIONS

1.5 Hour Version

The AUM is our most famous Social Meditation and combines movement, role playing and vocal expression in a way so that you can release stress and eventually feel more relaxed, in tune with your emotions, alive and open. This one and a half hour group process guides you in a safe and supportive environment through 14 aspects of the human experience: anger, forgiveness, love, stamina, life energy, chaos, dance, sadness, laughter, sensuality, chanting, silence, respect and sharing. The word AUM stands for Awareness, Understanding and Meditation. This meditation is one of the basic and most powerful techniques used at the Humaniversity and a great introduction to our work.

Come and join us in celebrating the turn of the sun at midsummer, the point of most Yan energy of the year.

Grandfather Fire helps us to transform what is not longer needed in our lives as we move into the second half of the year, when the days will get shorter again and it’s time to harvest what has been planted and ripened. We can take stock of what worked and what not. The Yang energy connects us to the heavens and to our spiritual fathers and mothers. So it is also time to give our gratitude to heaven for their guidance and protection. It’s a celebration of life were Yin and Yang are in perfect balance.
