SUMMARY:Vipassana Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Every Thursday Evening | 19:00–21:00Weekly In-Person Meditation Gathering \nOpen Vipassana Meditation Evening\, suitable for both beginners and experienced practitioners\, guided by one of the teachers from Dhammadipa. \nVipassana Meditation\nVipassana means “insight” or “seeing things as they truly are.” It is one of the oldest forms of meditation in the Buddhist tradition and was made widely accessible again by S.N. Goenka. Vipassana is a systematic technique for training awareness\, cultivating inner stillness\, and gaining deep insight into the nature of body and mind. \nBy observing bodily sensations with open\, non-reactive attention\, you develop clarity\, inner peace\, and a profound sense of freedom. \nStarting May 1st\, 2025\, we will resume weekly in-person sessions. Guidance will alternate between Adi Ichsan\, Henk van Voorst\, Aad Verboom\, and others. \nThe evening consists of walking and sitting meditation\, along with complementary exercises. It’s an open group – no registration required. \nThursdays are suitable for both beginners and advanced meditators. After the session\, there will be an opportunity to ask questions. On Monday evenings\, there is an online meditation for somewhat more experienced practitioners\, unless another activity is scheduled. \nThe meditation space is equipped with cushions and benches. We recommend wearing comfortable\, loose-fitting clothing. \n\nDana\nThursday evenings are offered on the basis of dana (generosity)\, with a suggested contribution of €12 to help cover fixed costs such as rent.You can give dana digitally by transferring your contribution to: \nIBAN: NL85 INGB 0005019113Name: Dhammadipa\, Amsterdam(using a QR code if available)A dana box is also present for cash donations.

SUMMARY:OMhealing Chanting & Alignment
DESCRIPTION:Date:  June 14\nTime: 17.00 tot 18.30 uur – door opens at 16.30  \nWhat are the benefits of singing OM?:\n1. Raises the vibrations of your energy center \n2. Strengthens the connection with the universe and inner peace \n3. Increases self-awareness and meditation \n4. Improved concentration and focus \n5. Relief from stress and anxiety \n6. Improved breathing \n7. Strengthens your spiritual connection \nOn Sunday\, January 10\, 2016\, I gave the first OM healing (OM meditation) at Samana Yoga Center. \nSince then\, OM healings have been held every month. \nEveryone who has participated can tell you how special the pure and healing energy that was released was. The overwhelming silence that followed was incredible every time. \nAfter a break of a few years (corona)\, I started again last year. It turned out that the energy field that previously formed during our OM chanting was still there. We only had to tap in to the energy field\, to experience the healing power of it. \nIn other words: \nOM chanting aligns the chakras and the belly-heart-head centers with “heaven and earth.” This creates healing in whatever presents itself\, both within ourselves and in our immediate surroundings. \nWhat are we going to do? \n– Preparation: \nSimple exercises for body and voice\, using gravity\, to arrive in the moment. \n– Om chanting \nWe chant AUM for 30 to 40 minutes. \n– Silence \nMeditation \nEnlist:\nmail to : caroline.erkelens@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Roll & Release LIVE & ONLINE
DESCRIPTION:This class is a healing space for letting go of tensions (both physical and emotional) and get refreshed with new space and vital energy. You work with self-massage of the fascia\, using props. A special class at Samana by Marta Font who combines her insights in shiatsu massage\, yoga and roll & release to give you what you need. \nHOW DOES IT WORK: MASSAGE OF THE FASCIA\n“Roll” stands for self massage using the body weight on props like tennis balls or blocks. This is a passive form of acupressure accessible to everybody. \n“Release” stands for letting go of tensions\, pains and blockages locked in our body systems. By releasing tightness in the belly\, hamstrings\, shoulders\, neck or jaw\, we also free ourselves of mental and emotional contractions. \nABOUT FASCIA\nFascia is a network of tissue that connects the body from head to toe. Fascia can be found almost everywhere in the body\, around and inside the muscles\, between the skin and the muscles\, around every organ\, bones\, ligaments and joints. In a healthy body fascia helps to maintain good posture\, range of motion\, strength and flexibility. But fascia is as well like a storage room and physical and emotional traumas get locked there. Then it becomes tight\, restricted and a source of tension. With “Roll&Release” we approach fascia by letting go all these knots of held vital energy. \n  \nTHE STRUCTURE OF THE CLASS\nSitting\nPranayama (breathing exercises)\nGentle asanas combined with the “Roll&Release” exercises with props like tennis balls\, blocks or rolled tissues.\nEach day we will focus on a specific area of the body. But because we work on the fascia\, the whole body will be affected. \nEXPERTISE OF THE TEACHER\nMarta Font is a certified Vijnana yoga teacher with more than ten years experience. She is also a Shiatsu therapist with knowledge and experience in Western and Eastern approaches to medicine. She applies in the lessons her experience giving treatments\, creating a safe\, warm space for personal healing. \n“Roll&Release” is a healing pathway created by Rusty Davis. I am pleased to be able to incorporate some of his work in my work at Samana Yoga Center. \nPRACTICAL DETAILS: \nCost: live: €18\,00\nonline: € 15\,- \n€18.00Register Now	\n			\n \n€15.00Register Now	\n			\n \n(Check our terms and conditions about registration\, payment and cancellation) \n
