Philosophy Workshop: “Beyond Mindfulness – Western Meditation Techniques in Theory & Practice”

Reeder's Alley (Caretaker's Lawn) 101 Reeder's Alley, Helena

In this workshop, we’ll explore three techniques of meditation with deep roots in Western spiritual, religious, and philosophical life and practice. We’ll begin with two simple exercises, popular among the ancient Pythagoreans and Stoics, for developing the power of recollection and preparing ourselves for challenging circumstances. Then we’ll turn to a practice known as “discursive meditation,” where a particular sort of focused inner dialogue is used to unlock layers of meaning within a text, an image, or a conceptual system.

Philosophy Workshop: “Beyond Mindfulness – Western Meditation Techniques in Theory & Practice”

Reeder's Alley (Caretaker's Lawn) 101 Reeder's Alley, Helena

In this workshop, we’ll explore several techniques of meditation with deep roots in Western spiritual, religious, and philosophical life and practice. We’ll examine two daily practices, popular among the ancient Pythagoreans and Stoics, for developing the power of recollection and preparing ourselves for challenging circumstances. And we'll consider more broadly the ways in which meditative practices can help us to develop our powers of attention, concentration, clarity, and discernment. Learn more & RSVP here!

Philosophy Workshop: “How to Meditate with a Text”

Reeder's Alley (Caretaker's Lawn) 101 Reeder's Alley, Helena

For thousands of years, people seeking after wisdom have approached important texts as invitations for meditation, whose treasures can be uncovered through careful, deliberate practices of attention. In this workshop, we’ll explore some of these techniques, combining practical instruction with reflections on the theoretical and conceptual background needed to make sense of the practices.
