Notes:

 De Art of Living Part 2 cursus is een unieke kans voor meer diepgang in kennis en ervaring en het verder vergemakkelijken van het onbeschrijflijke proces van ons eigen ontwaken, na het volgen van de Art of Living Part 1, Yes!+ of Happiness Program.

Stilte houden als een hulpmiddel voor het verhogen van het bewustzijn, is door de eeuwen heen bekend in vele verschillende tradities en culturen. Wanneer diepe meditaties worden toegevoegd aan deze stilte, komen onze steeds veranderende gedachten tot rust en wordt onze geest helder, hetgeen aanleiding geeft tot een gevoel van natuurlijke vreugde. Een verhoogd bewustzijn en een onwankelbaar gevoel van stabiliteit worden ervaren en die blijven voor langere tijd na de cursus.

Duik diep in je Zelf, ervaar de krachtige stilte en diepe rust van de speciale  meditaties, ontwaak met de natuur, laat voor je zorgen, geniet van deze speciale   reis... een ware vakantie voor lichaam en geest.
