Dru Meditation
Group classes for stillness, focus, inner wisdom
Why meditate?
'Meditate for an hour everyday unless you are too busy. In that case meditate for two hours'. (Zen quote)
Dru meditation, like all meditation practices, is about connecting with an inner stillness from which great strength and clarity can arise.
This is so valuable at times of turmoil or uncertainty - so the busier and more pressurized you may feel, the more that meditation could help. Meditation is not about clearing your mind of thoughts - that is impossible - but about observing what comes up and not reacting, so that you can gain more control over your responses and actions.
Meditation can help increase attention, compassion and emotional intelligence, enabling you to be there more reliably for people and situations, when they need you the most.
