centre for more awareness

More than 20 years ago, visiting the Native American tribe of mother Twylah, I learned the 7-directions meditation, which they called "the dance of life".
Since that time the meditation is part of my life, and I would like to share it with you.
This meditation connects us with the 4 directions east, south, west and north, with the earth and last but not least, with the point of inner strength inside us. And while we are moving continuously into those directions, we become also connected to all the cycles we go through in our life, like
- morning, afternoon, evening, night - the cycle of the day
- spring, summer, autumn, winter -     the cycle of the year
- youth, maturity, getting older, die -  the cycle of a lifetime
and all these circles are always connected with the earth, that is carrying us, the heaven that is feeding our spirit, the strength within us.
We will do this meditation in the morning, outside when the weather is good,  in full contact with the earth and the blue sky.

Through the Dances of Universal Peace we will than further explore the themes that are brought up.
We will start Friday evening with the experience of beginning - with getting to know each other, with a new experience of the dances, maybe it's even the first time you dance - wonderful!
Saturday morning we will continue our exploration of the cycles with dances that call forth all the warmth and enthusiasm that belong to summer and maturity, love and growing.
Saturday evening we will continue with more meditative dances, so we can connect with those parts of us, that are inside, that what you find when you are in silence, listening to your inner voice.
And on Sunday morning it is already time for finishing, letting go, prepare for something new.

Saturday afternoon is free, you will have time to enjoy the beauty of nature around us. I chose especially this weekend because it is the best of the year, with all the appletrees in blossom.

Some practical stuff: there will be no cook in this weekend, for more than one reason: one is that it helps to keep the price low. Another, more important one: Samuel Lewis used to say it's so important people eat, dance and pray together so that they will be in peace together. But in fact he also used to prepare food together with his students and I feel this will connect us even more. (don't worry for too much work, I will prepare the main meals in advance, but before and after each meal we will do the last bits of work together)
