K2338-2: ZEN AND THE ART OF MINDFUL CALLIGRAPHY - with Alexander Böckmann & Br. Tue Chieu -

21.09.2023 - 24.09.2023

- with Alexander Böckmann & Br. Tue Chieu -

In this course, we will bring our minds back to our bodies and bring our mindfulness and concentration to the art of calligraphy.

This is a way of enjoying the present moment and not trying to attain perfection.
Our mindfulness practice helps us relax and treasure the moment of being together with brush, ink, and paper.

The practice of calligraphy is embedded in a schedule with sitting meditation, walking meditation, mindful and silent meals, deep relaxation, etc.

The course facilitator kindly asks for a donation.
Please give it directly to the facilitator during the course.
