Movements for flexibility and freedom

“So try now to relax, and your very effort to relax will create more tensions.”   Osho

Relaxation is effortless, tension requires effort – although the effort we put into maintaining tension is mostly overlooked and we continue to create pain and disease unconsciously.
Mentastics is a way of relaxing without trying to relax. Playfulness is the key. As our energy flows gently and playfully into the movements, a soft focus on the effects of gravity anchors us to the present and we see clearly and mindfully what we are doing, unconsciously to maintain our tensions. Let go is spontaneous.

Mindfulness transforms

Bringing mindfulness to the subtle dance between feelings, sensations and movements encourages integration and alignment to arise naturally and easily. A transformational experience of wholeness and integration occurs.

“If you can understand this single word “mindfulness” you will have understood Buddha’s whole being, his whole approach… His approach is a methodology, not a doctrine. It is a way of life. People live like robots, they live mechanically. Buddha says live non-mechanically.”   Osho

WHY ATTEND THIS SESSION?
If you want to release pain and tension from your bodymind and find a tool for remaining stress free, this session is for you. Mentastics can also help in chronic conditions, such as arthritis, by restoring the muscles to correct functioning and taking the stress off your joints.
Bringing mindfulness to your bodily movements will deepen your meditation and integrate it more fully into your daily life.

“We are outside our bodies, just like ghosts; around and around, but never inside. The more man has become civilized, the less he is in contact with his own body. The contact is lost; that is why the body is tense.”   Osho

The deeper reality of the body

Once you learn to live from inside your body, life becomes real, you become real, multidimensional – fully alive, and at one with existence. And to flow with the rhythm of existence is health.

WHAT IS INCLUDED?

“That is the kind of care we should take in developing awareness: a relaxed alertness. These two words look diametrically opposite. They are, because whenever you are relaxed you lose alertness, and whenever you are alert, you lose relaxedness. Unless they both happen together you will miss Buddha’s message… It is the highest synthesis of human consciousness: one polarity is relaxedness, another polarity is alertness, attentiveness.”  Osho
