Spiritual Somatic training is a power tool that supports you in resolving the many different traumas that we carry inside and also all around us. It gives us the opportunity to realize our true potential to overcome anything, by tapping into secret vibration and frequencies that are transformational. It is a therapeutic approach that focuses on the connection between the mind and body. It emphasizes the importance of bodily sensations and experiences in the healing process. It's an energetic meditation, followed by our silent guided meditation. Regulating the Nervous System: Trauma often leads to dysregulation of the nervous system, resulting in feelings of anxiety or hyperarousal. The rhythmic movement of somatic vibration can help calm the nervous system, promoting a sense of safety and relaxation. We also combine Somatic Energy training with sitting healing and guided silent meditation. The intention is finding inner peace that supports the mind, body and spirit and gives a sense of connection to God, nature and Self. Somatic Healing unlocks the secrets of the Self, as we let go of what we don’t need, and encourage the overall Self to realize its full potential. **Who should attend:** * Anyone experiencing stress, anxiety, or burnout * Professionals seeking better work-life balance * Individuals interested in mindfulness and self-care * Anyone looking to improve their mental or emotional wellbeing * This event is suitable for both beginners seeking an introduction to somatic meditation and seasoned practitioners looking to deepen awareness **What to expect:** * Expert advice on meditation and mindfulness techniques * Movement "Somatic" meditation, accompanied by Somatic techniques * 11-minute silent guided meditation * Practical stress-reduction strategies * Tools for emotional regulation and mental clarity * Supportive community and open discussion **Event Details:** * 🕉️ *Divine Representation and Teacher:* SHREE MAHARANI JI * 👤 *Facilitators:* MICHAEL BERNARD COX & DR FRANCIS VALLOOR * 📍 *Location:* Inter Faith Centre, DCU Glasnevin Campus, Collins Ave Ext, Glasnevin, Dublin 9, D09 WPA0. -> Map/Directions: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/ab797JPgrn6zQaK86](https://maps.app.goo.gl/ab797JPgrn6zQaK86) * 📅 *Date & Time:* Tuesday 21st April 2026 - 7:30pm * 🎟️ *Non-ticketed event:* Recommended donation: €10 **Why attend:** * Leave feeling lighter, more grounded, and connected, with practical tools you can use anytime to manage stress, release anxiety, and bring more peace into your daily life. **Contact/Connect:** * ✆ Contact: via private message or comments section through the Maha Ji Yoga Meditation Meetup page * Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mahajiyogameditation/ * Join our spiritual community on Telegram: [https://t.me/+3gi2S-OgptRjOWM8](https://t.me/+3gi2S-OgptRjOWM8)

On a donation basis. **Why meditate with others?** Meditation can help you pause, notice what’s happening in your mind and body, and build greater calm, clarity, and self-awareness - particularly important in a busy, demanding world. Meditation isn’t about emptying your mind or getting it “right,” but about paying attention to your own experience, just as it is. Learning and practicing meditation with other people can deepen this experience. Practicing together creates a sense of connection and shared understanding, reminding you that everyone’s experience is different and that there’s no single right way to meditate. Being part of a group can offer encouragement, structure, and a feeling of support, making the practice more sustainable and meaningful over time.

The meaning of the word zen is meditation, zazen means sitting meditation. In zazen practice we begin to know ourselves, and to go beyond the limits of our personal ego. Within our tradition zazen is referred to as shikantaza, not doing, letting go of thoughts, dropping off body and mind. This sitting meditation is the focus of our practice. Language limits our ability to communicate the true nature of zen; it is something that is better understood through practice. We are open to everyone interested in learning about zen. Intro workshop for newcomers is available at 5.30pm each Sunday. The dojo is a sacred place and it is important to be considerate of everyone. We have many people that travel to practise together once a week or once a month. So for that reason it is really essential that we all know the structure of the sitting practise (when to sit, how to do Kinhin, the different bell sounds and their meaning etc), to ensure a silent, safe and meaningful meditation. And it's also great to meet everyone before the sitting practise. And answer any questions you may have. We have zafus and zabutons (mats and cushions) for all to sit on. Chairs are available too. Comfortable clothing for sitting, black or neutral tones best. We greatly appreciate a donation of €5 to cover costs if it's possible for you. Please arrive 10min before start so 6ish (if you're not doing the intro workshop). You are very welcome to our dojo!
