PETER RUSSELL WORKSHOP - Day Two

For thousands of years, spiritual traditions have taught meditation as a way to awaken to the happiness, joy, and love that are our true nature. Yet, many people find meditation tedious and difficult, a never-ending struggle to quiet the mind or focus the attention. This has led to the popular misconception that meditation requires great discipline and years of practice.

Peter Russell, who has been teaching meditation for 40 years, shows that the key is giving up all effort and trying. The mind in its natural relaxed state is already at ease. We merely need to let go of the seeking that keeps the mind busy and tense. The beauty of this approach is that nothing needs to be changed or eliminated. It is simply surrendering to the fullness of the present moment, and opening to the wisdom and love that we are.

In this workshop, Peter will guide us through practices that clarify and deepen our experience of meditation, allowing us to open more readily to the stillness within. He'll also show how to use our inner guidance in support of our spiritual practice.
