Rabbit Hole

Join Jeff for an extraordinary opportunity to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with yourself and others at the Vancouver Aquarium.

In this retreat, Tasha Schumann and Jeff Warren take the spirit of their Mind Bod Adventure Pod and remake it as an in-person community meditation hang out. The subject is the weird and wonderful world of “practice,” i.e., things we can do with our minds and bodies in order to learn, grow, and heal.

For centuries yogis have understood the intimate relationship between the mind and the breath. Our habituated patterns of mind are directly reflected in the habituated patterns of our breathing. Want control of your mind? Take control of your breath. The breath is our greatest medicine once we learn to harness it.

Many times I’ve heard Shinzen say how we begin with trying to fit meditation into our lives, but over time, a figure ground reversal can happen: our lives become more meditative.
