Nature and Meditation in Northern Croatia Tour
In this one day meditation tour our goal is to experience diverse natural environments to see how they contribute to meditation. We will visit environments that entail meditating by a river, in a cave, on a mountain meadow, and in a forest by a stream.
It is well known that nature overall has a profound positive impact on the human psyche, and by meditating in it one can get valuable insights about themselves and can notice subtle forces at play at each of the different landscapes; noticing how they can deepen your meditations and bring a deep state of relaxation.
As I would be guiding the meditations, this tour is suitable for both beginners and advanced practitioners alike. The types of exercises that we will be doing are meditations related to visualization, sounds, breathing, and mindfulness. They come from Buddhist and Vedic traditions of meditation.
We will visit: Drava river, Vindija cavem, and Ivancica mountain.
