Weekly Discussion & Meditation: Somatic Koans
Dunwoody,GA, GA, US# 3/1 Meeting: "Awakening Through the Body" By Will Johnson
Regular Sunday Meeting, March 1 @ 4:30 pm in Dunwoody.
This week, we will be discussing the following new series:## "Awakening Through the Body"
By Will Johnson
> In Awakening Through the Body, a new series, meditation teacher Will Johnson introduces somatic koans. Like traditional Zen koans, which use paradoxical inquiries to transform how we think, these experiential inquiries transform how—and what—we feel.
> Can you sit both fully upright and at ease? Can you breathe through your entire body? Can you feel the hum of aliveness just beneath your skin?
> By using these "physiological hacks” to explore our embodied experience, we not only avoid the tensions associated with long sedentary sessions, says Johnson—we turn hidden patterns of energy and sensation into doorways to relaxation and insight.Please listen prior to the meeting.

## "Awakening Through the Body"
By Will Johnson
> In Time Management for Mortals, Oliver Burkeman calls on us to eschew rote productivity, embrace our finitude, and surrender to the rhythms of life, so that we may “end our struggle with time”—and live with “more accomplishment, more success, and more time spent on what matters most.
