How has your meditation practice shifted and changed since you first took it up?
Please join this conversation with Stephen Josephs, who shares how his mediation has evolved over 60 years of daily practice.
As one of the leaders in the Kundalini Yoga tradition at it’s peak in the west, Stephen was a devoted practitioner in what he calls the ‘fire practices,’ willful and powerful practices that can dramatically change one’s state.
But after many years of dedicated effort, the fire started to go out. His practice evolved into what he calls the ‘water practices’ - techniques and attentional strategies that are more about dissolving the sense of a separate self.
In this conversation he shares some of the essential elements of the water practices and we explore that gnarly question: What it is that is actually dissolving?
You’ll come away with some key insights from a depth practitioner and a taste of how the dissolving practices might be of benefit to you.
