This program offers a new style of Insight Meditation that employs the “Nine Bodies of Consciousness” map. The focus of this practice is on developing mindfulness of the felt sense of embodied experience. Accessing the felt sense allows you to directly experience the various capacities of consciousness, including intuitive awareness and emptiness.
The program will start by focusing on the consciousness that arises in the physical body and then, through a series of guided meditations, explores ever more subtle levels of consciousness. This distinct approach was developed by Phillip Moffitt and emphasizes two daily, detailed 45-60 minute guided meditations. The practice utilizes the felt sense as a means for freeing the mind of excessive conceptualization, reactivity, and scattered thinking, thereby supporting the arising of liberating insights.
Teaching Assistant: Jan Rosamond
Teaching Assistant (Remote): TBD
Note: Recommended Listening – Potential participants are strongly encouraged to listen to Nine Bodies guided meditations prior to the program to experience this style of practice. Guided meditations from a previous Nine Bodies Insight program can be found here.
Program Format: This program will be held in noble silence except for the two daily guided meditations, talks, and teacher-led practice support meetings.
