859.0. "Meditation group in LKG" by SUDAMA::SUDAMA (Living is easy with eyes closed...) Wed Sep 14 1988 09:36

    We are starting an informal weekly meditation group in LKG.
    
    Meditation is a form of self-development which helps to calm the 
    mind, remove tension from the body, and create more self-awareness 
    and sensitivity. Regular practice of meditation leads to improved 
    body/mind integration and an overall sense of personal well-being.
    
    The group will meet every Friday from 11:45 to 12:30 in the
    exercise room near the employee entrance in LKG1-1. The first 
    meeting will be on September 16. There will be a designated
    "leader" each week who will guide the group and present new
    meditation techniques. Some of the forms that will be explored
    include the following: 
    
	    - sound meditation
	    - light meditation
	    - silent meditation
	    - meditation on energy centers
	    - laughing meditation
	    - walking meditation
	    - dance meditation
    
    The meditations will not be directed toward any particular 
    religious or philosophical leaning, nor will they represent the
    practices of any formal group or institution. Everyone is welcome 
    to attend.
    
    Since the room has a wooden floor, participants are encouraged to 
    bring mats or towels to sit on (there are gym mats available, but 
    they are not necessarily clean, and may be too soft to sit on 
    comfortably). Also, since the room is kept fairly cool it may be 
    advisable to bring a light blanket or shawl as well.
    
    If anyone would like to lead meditation sessions and present
    specific techniques, please contact us.

    	If you find this is successful in terms of employee interest
    at LKG, would you consider making this available to other facilities?
    I'm interested, but LKG is a little out of my range over lunch!

    Ram,
    
    I have just this minute read your note.  I am very interested in
    joining the meditation group in LKG and as I work here it makes
    it very easy.  Do I have to sign up for this? How often do you
    meet?
