Free Meditation Session
Join us at NAGB for a free meditation session designed for artists of all disciplines, and open to the public. Please bring a mat, cushion, towel, or whatever you would like to sit on during the 90 minute session.
Peace Revolution is a project by World Peace Initiative – an international organization working to promote a culture of peace through the practice of meditation. Through its PIPO (peace in, peace out) initiative, volunteers travel the world to offer free meditation sessions to schools, organizations, yoga/meditation centers, state organizations, and many others. Peace Revolution strongly believes that promotion of a culture of peace begins with self development and the meditation practice improves quality of life, reduces stress, increasing concentration, and increases feelings of well-being and happiness.
Peace Revolution is bringing a volunteer group to Nassau, offering its “Basic Principles of Meditation” workshop using the Dhammakaya technique. Originally from Thailand, this technique has been adapted into a form of practice for everyone, regardless of religion, nationality, and beliefs. The workshop includes an introduction to meditation, basic techniques, meditation practice, a question and answer session, and a talk on the project and the benefits of meditation.
Peace Revolution first visited The Bahamas in 2015 when two sessions were held in Nassau – one public and one private – with facilitation by Ilse, a volunteer from Mexico. This year, two public sessions will be held at the National Art Gallery of the Bahamas and Cosmosis Yoga Suite (Tuesday, May 3 at 1pm)
