Living Awareness Meditation
During this intensive, participants receive instruction in, and extended experience of, Living Awareness Meditation — a simple yet profound practice designed to calm body and mind, connect with Source, and support greater energy, intelligence, balance, and well-being in daily life.
Living Awareness Meditation grew from Peter’s study of traditional Balinese wisdom, combined with 40 years of meditation practice and a lifelong exploration of higher states of consciousness and the unfolding of awareness.
It brings Balinese wisdom into a living form, offering a doorway to awakening.
Our daily routine includes
- Morning and evening group meditation
- Special morning and afternoon advanced instruction in Living Awareness Meditation led by Peter
- Yoga, stretching, pranayama, and energy meditation
- Question and answer sessions with feedback on experience
- Evening talks and sharing on the unfolding of awareness and the development of the whole person from Balinese and Western perspectives
The programme begins with lunch on the first day and concludes with lunch on day six.
