Meditation in Leisepark (Prenzlauerberg) #2

This time we meet in Leisepark, a quiet park built on a former cemetery, where historical tombstones are still preserved. The setting is a useful reminder of impermanence—something Theravāda practice has been pointing out for about 2,500 years. Few meditation halls provide such direct architectural commentary on anicca.

Structure of the session

1. Short introduction
2. 8-minute easy qigong warm-up
3. 30-minute sit (guided mettā → samatha)
4. Open discussion and exchange
5. Short qigong break
6. 30-minute silent sit

The intention is to balance stillness with a small amount of embodied movement, helping the body settle before each sit.

Bring something to sit on and dress appropriately for the weather. Prior meditation experience is recommended, as the format assumes familiarity with sustained sitting practice.
