At the beginning of a new year, let’s breathe in a spark of soothing inspiration and set a fresh clear direction for your days ahead!
We’ve prepared for you an attentively curated meditation course with the most enriching poems and quotes from buddhism, zen, sufism, taoism, gnosticism and celtic wisdom.
Each day we will treat you with a gentle, yet deeply relaxing guided meditation. The narrative will be inspired by the wisdom of enlightened words from ancient enlightened masters as well as modern mystics and poets. Their words are a gift, a light from the beyond. When received with an open heart, their message brings a deep transformation to the listener. They all share the great secrets of life, love, creativity, enlightenment and the power we all embody
… to be the shapers of our lives, to manifest abundance in every way and to find fulfillment, joy and contentment.
I warmly invite you to join me for four weeks of reconnecting to the core of your Being and to bring about the changes in your life that will not only enrich you but the people and the world around you.
With much Love, Peter
“May my mind come alive today, to the invisible geography, that invites me to new frontiers, to break the dead shell of yesterdays, to risk being disturbed and changed. May I have the courage today, to live the life that I would love, to postpone my dream no longer but do at last what I came here for and waste my heart on fear no more. ” – John O’Donohue

SESSIONS STRUCTURE
In each session you will discover new inspiring poem, koan or quote from ancient as well as modern mystics and poets.
To let their message fully unfold within you, Peter will gently guide you to into a relaxed and soothing meditation space where you can feel completely relaxed, nourished and at peace.
By approaching the words words of wisdom in this way, you allow their soothing layers to fully nourish and inspire you, connecting the meaning directly to your inner being, essential needs and authenticity.
The deeper part of each meditations guidance will be the ‘practice of presence’ approach with mindfulness elements, to support you to embody an effective meditation practice.
Within this course, we will be using wise words from ancient as well as modern mystics and poets, such as:
Socrates – Basho – Lao-Tzu – Rumi – Changtuzu – Hafiz – Buddha – Gesus – Francis of Assissi – Thich Nhat Hahn – Romana Maharashi – Eckhard Tolle – Osho – Kahlil Gibran – Body Dharma – Marian Williamson – Walt Whitman – Paolo Coelho – Don Miguel Ruiz – Danielle Doby – John O’Donohue and others.
MEDITATION & WORDS OF WISDOM COMBINED
“… the space in the gaps between the words… that’s where your essence is waiting…”
While listening or reading poetry or koan, we are shifting our attention from just reading words (thinking about them) to an openness of the higher meaning of the message. The mind becomes calmer and we are creating a space within us for profound insights and meaning to arise. With poems, the world of symbols and imagery opens within us and connects us to our deeper and more authentic wisdom.
Meditation then enhances this unique ‘space beyond’ and helps us to embrace it fully on a holistic level (mind, body, spirit, emotions).
Through the harmonious combination of the profound messages and the meditative space, we can connect with the real jewels of our authentic wisdom . Then the practice becomes a rich nourishment and ‘food for our soul’.
WHY MORNING PRACTICE?
In the morning our senses are open and our mind is still relatively silent, not cluttered with too many thoughts. It is like the nurturing soil waiting for the first seeds. Whatsoever we plant in our mind in the morning will be massively supported and developed by our unconscious and subconscious minds. Moreover, morning meditation will set you up positively so you will feel relaxed, focused and empowered for the whole day.
