Greece, Tao's center! September by the Aegean sea.


Tao's center is happy to host Juditta Ben David and Michael Shachrur for Surrender to the NOW, an awareness group through meditation mindfulness and motion.

5 days of Breath, meditation, authentic movement, laughing, writing, some somatic experiencing.. lots of Being and Presence... just this just now.

To be fully present is in effect the simplest act of Being... yet... somehow it gets complicated along the way.. So, it is an invitation to meet that simplicity again :-)

With some kindness, radical acceptance, with the help of a most lovely surrounding.. mmm

Tao's center on the island of Paros, Greece. Check it out here (under "special events")

Solace

Have been teaching Death and Dying from the Buddhist perspective
lately and for my kind students I'd like to embed a beautiful video
on the Subject with Love.

So Much has happened.. and it's Spring


SO much has happened! Life. I've moved a house, to the western Galille, delightful area with hills olives and sea, a multicultural texture of druze christians muslims jews some buddhists and even some Bahhai. A lovely spacious house that would love to host workshops, especially ones that have an inclination to Mindfulness and psychotherapy, the body and music. Suggestions will be welcomed. We shall post our offers here soon.


Joined a women group that studies the IFS, Internal Family System, together with REC (re-evaluation counseling) in Nazareth. Being part of a peace work women group, connecting the communities in this area, in this neighbourhood, is such an inspiring nourishing and joyful endeavor.


And then an Article has appeared ! About Somatic Experiencing, my work here and in Africa, Whow, the people at Chaim Acherim have done a great job, thanks a lot. Meanwhile it has been published in Hebrew, we hope it will be translated soon. You can read it here :-)


Preparing for the ESTD conference, trauma and dissociation, Ireland 2010, where I will be presenting about cross cultural trauma therapy, and will be giving two workshops as an introduction to SE. Excited curious and patient at once. Mainly working and cooking a ppt...mmm


Last and not least, a Mindfulness workshop. This April, the 25th eve, in kibbutz Evron. A set of 7 meetings, in the tradition of Vipassana/teravada, an introduction to the art of Mindfulness.
