Somatic Sutta Exploration
The suttas are filled with practices that are applicable to the many difficult and trying situations found in the modern world and in our personal lives. The basis for understanding and living the Buddha’s teachings is right here in our bodies.
This month of exploring sutta based embodiment will lead us into a path of ease, play, strength, and freedom. With practice it is possible to remain steady, peaceful, and open hearted amidst anything, everything, and nothing.
