Learning the Art of Non-Distraction
Saturday July 14, 2018; 8:00am-1:00pm
UCSD Telemedicine Building, Lower Level Auditorium
Breakfast and lunch will be provided!
Cost: $125
Kelee meditation (KM) is a unique, brief 5-10 minute meditation practice performed twice daily. In KM, the goal is to practice attaining stillness of mind, which is strictly defined as the absence of distraction from thinking/brain chatter and distraction from the 5 physical senses. This is achieved by learning how to get out of "brain function" (associated with the thinking process, brain chatter, and the 5 physical senses) and open up to "mind function", associated with a mental feeling process.
