Embodied Sonic Meditation: Fostering Calm, Joy, and Community for All
|
03:00 PM - 04:00 PM
Join us for 1.5 hours of music-enhanced secular meditation and renewal retreat. This workshop draws on ancient Tibetan contemplative practices to unify body and mind in the present moment, using sound arts and movement practices as training tools. Participants will explore different breathing, grounding, centering, and high-energy techniques to cultivate calm, joy, and multisensory awareness.
Through a mindful, interactive, and cheerful experience, attendees will deepen their awareness of the body, presence, and art-making while enjoying a sense of joyful inclusion.
The first hour or so will focus on the meditation workshop practices. The remaining time will be devoted to community building, sharing, and mingling, providing space to support one another and prepare for the upcoming final weeks.
Facilitators: Jiayue Cecilia Wu, Ph.D. (She/Her), Assistant Professor, MSRA Graduate Program Director, College of Arts and Media
