About the event
- Fluid Mind & Spirit can be taken as a stand alone module to deepen your meditation and spiritual practice for $800 (Zoom) - $1000 (In Vermont).
Fluid Mind & Spirit: October 6th - 9th, 2022 with Kevan Gale IN PERSON at the Fluid Vermont House OR live and interactive on ZOOM. Space in Vermont is first come first serve, so sign up early to secure a spot.
Fluid Mind: In this Module, students explore a central question: How can we let go of fear, craving and attachment in order to become happier and more content? The Fluid Mind approach begins with a foundational understanding of Tibetan Buddhist mind training, and continues to explore the science of meditation, the foundations of practice, and specific meditation practices (including shamata, maitri/loving kindness, and tong-len). A Fluid mind is present and adaptable to change—qualities that lead to happier living and more refined yogic practice.
- Fluid Spirit: We often think of life as static snapshots that are put together to form a bigger picture, but in reality the nature of life is flowing from one moment to the next. Since life is fluid, we can all benefit from discovering a way of life that moves with the forces of nature instead of against them. Fluid Living teaches us to move effortlessly through life in a way that creates happiness within ourselves and those around us. This module uses experiential learning and real world examples while drawing on the ancient Tibetan yogic philosophies such as the Six Paramitas as outlined The Bodhisattva’s Way of Living. Includes: morning meditation practice, asana, lecture, group meditation, recorded videos, content, self study

- An approach to movement that allows for freedom and exploration while aligning the body in a safe and efficient manner. Unlike a mechanical or precision based alignment, this approach to movement honors the dynamic nature of the yoga practice and keeps the body safe without disrupting flow. With simplicity in mind, Fluid Body provides students and teachers with simplistic methods for understanding safe alignment. Acknowledging that the safest alignment starts within the mind, you will learn how to listen carefully to your own body to make the intuitive adjustments as your body moves. Includes: morning meditation practice, asana, lecture, group meditation, recorded videos, content, self study
