Online Introduction to Mudra Space Awareness

August 7

1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. US Eastern Standard Time*

Join us for a three-hour dive into the illuminating mind-body practice of Mudra Space Awareness. This introduction will explore what Mudra Space Awareness is and how we practice it.

The three-hour session will include:

• Mudra Being practice
• Mudra intensifications (Lizard and/or Generosity)
• Contemplation of Mudra slogans
• Sharing and discussion
• Sensory explorations

Mudra is a powerful practice and training originally taught by Tibetan Buddhist master Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche to students in the 1970s. It helps the practitioner grow more familiar with the unfamiliar groundlessness of now.

The practice invites us to inhabit our bodies and the present moment through body postures called intensifications and exploratory activities, called clinics. Intensifications and all of Mudra’s exploratory activities cut through ego and discursive mind, stabilizing one’s experience in the present moment.

Unlike meditation practice that can be still and quiet, Mudra includes movement, muscular intensity, sound, and play. Mudra is always done in groups and usually in-person.

For the past two years, during this time of the Covid pandemic, we have been exploring and have found new ways to use Zoom and technology to connect and deepen.

This online introduction is good for anyone totally new to Mudra Space Awareness and fulfills a prerequisite to attend full Mudra programs. Our next full Mudra retreat will be Mudra Magic, August 26-28. It will be held online. Pending the status of Covid, it will also be held in-person at Karmê Chöling. Attending this 3-hour introduction and practice session will qualify you to join the August retreat via Zoom. This introduction is for you whether you are new to Mudra or already a Mudra practitioner. It will be an opportunity for all of us to enjoy Mudra practice together as we deepen into our bodies and the present moment. Please join us! And we hope to see you at the August Mudra retreat. If you have any questions, please let us know at: mudraspaceawareness@gmail.com.

Everyone is welcome to join!
