Meditation - Intro to Flow Consciousness – The Vedic Approach to Meditation with James Brown

We live in a world that prizes critical, analytical thinking and effort. (We effort the hell out everything.) And yet the best experiences in life, when we’re in the zone, in the flow of the present moment, are when we’re barely thinking and not trying. But for most people these flow states are rare and fleeting. Why? Because we often find our minds are spinning out of control, a non-stop stream of brain chatter Buddhists call “The Monkey Mind.” Sound familiar? Come join Vedic Meditation master James Brown for a workshop in which you’ll discover the forces that prevent us from being present, and learn some simple, practical and effortless meditation techniques that engage your mind’s natural ability to settle on it’s own (yes, even your mind) when you allow it to flow. 

“James is a great teacher, a skillful communicator, and a voice of wisdom. His instruction is simple and clear. I particularly liked the fact that his approach is jargon-free and unencumbered with religious belief or dogma: it’s just meditation, pure and simple. It’s been a great addition to my life. Thanks, James!”  -- Kirk Citron, Writer and Creative Director
“The way James talks about meditation makes it seem not only accessible but, for someone as busy as me, very doable.  He really goes into the science of stress - what it is and how it effects everything from our bodies and minds to the way we handle pressure - and I found it all fascinating.”  --  Marcus Colombano, San Francisco
