Our Body is the vehicle & container of our Spirit. Our practice needs to be dynamic to help us grow.

This is the second monthly webinar in the series ‘Developing a Personal Practice’.

Time: 11am Pacific (Seattle), 2pm EST (New York), 7pm UK (London), 9pm South Africa (Cape Town). If you can’t make the designated time, don’t worry, a recording will be sent out a few days later.

The theme of today’s Webinar will be Prayer vs Meditation. We will continue the discussion about the yin & yang of spiritual practice. Sometimes we need to activate our energy centres through dynamic prayer involving physical yoga, chanting, dancing etc… And sometimes we need to just sit quietly and listen.

We will discuss different forms of dynamic prayer with the emphasis being on ‘passion leading to compassion’. Our practice needs to involve our entire being.

When is it good to activate our spirit through dynamic prayer & when is it good to just sit & listen?
