Art and Meditation at The Dalí

Join us to journey inward through art and meditation at The Dalí. Our monthly meditation practice is based on the idea of looking at examples of art to achieve a dynamic stillness of the mind. Each session will examine an artwork from a current exhibition to make us think, refocus, slow down and go deeper into our minds to permit body connection and awareness.

After a short introduction to the artwork, we will consider what is in its narrative and formal qualities that could serve us to quiet our minds. Guided meditation instruction and suggestions will lead us to a place of calmness and equilibrium. Each session will introduce and utilize different sets of tools from a variety of spiritual traditions to assist staying in comfortable meditative mode for about twenty minutes. However, anyone having a prior meditation practice is welcome to utilize it and join us for the collective peaceful energy building.

Tibetan sing bowl sound will accompany us with an occasional bell throughout the practice and to signal the end of the meditation session. Afterwards, we will welcome questions and comments about the practice, the artwork, and the experience in general.

We will conclude with a minute of closing meditation to internally seal the benefits of the practice.
