Méditer simplement from edX

Ce cours vous invite à ancrer votre attention dans le moment présent... Il vous invite à savourer cet instant, à savourer votre vie. Vous constaterez qu'il peut être simple d'intégrer la méditation dans votre vie quotidienne, mais que la pratiquer régulièrement peut être un défi. Un défi qui peut être apprivoisé.

Le simple fait de méditer vous initie à l'art d'être pleinement présent dans votre vie, à cultiver une certaine amitié avec le moment présent malgré les imprévus et les tribulations.

Ce cours s'appuie à la fois sur des connaissances séculaires et sur les avancées scientifiques récentes en matière de méditation de pleine conscience (pleine présence, pleine conscience.) Des bienfaits tant sur la santé psychologique que physique.

L'approche de méditation de pleine conscience, reconnue internationalement, est une approche rigoureuse, laïque, accessible à tous quel que soit votre niveau d'expérience, une approche ludique/sourire.

Meditate Simply est un cours rempli de contributions de collègues hautement reconnus dans le domaine de la méditation, dont Jon Kabat-Zinn Ph D, Christophe André, psychiatre, Mary Oliver, poète et le formidable Eckhart Tolle.

Vous apprendrez à pratiquer la méditation de manière cohérente en réalisant que la simple connaissance de la méditation n’a aucun effet réel, mais qu’une pratique régulière peut transformer l’expérience de votre vie.

What you'll learn

Les 3 étapes de Simply Meditate, « First Steps », « Everyday Occasions » et « A Little Further » vous guideront à travers 30 pratiques méditatives, dix pratiques méditatives vidéo pour chacune des 3 étapes du cours.

A vous d'intégrer ces pratiques dans votre quotidien et ainsi cultiver vos talents naturels de régulation de l'attention et des émotions, d'être présent dans l'instant présent, pour une certaine résilience et joie de vivre.

Quel que soit votre niveau de familiarité avec la méditation, Simply Meditate est là pour vous tel que vous êtes. Méditer simplement, c’est comme un ami qui vous invite à cultiver un certain art de vivre. Et cela va au-delà des différents rôles dans votre vie. Avec Méditer simplement, invité, invité vous avez tendance à être pleinement vous-même, à tomber en amitié avec les moments présents de votre vie, en amitié avec votre vie.
