Form, Space, and Perception
The body - our vehicle for experiencing life - is shaped as much by the mind as it by form. In this meditation, Gen Wangpo will guide us in exploring the relationship between body and perception, reflecting themes that pervade Antony Gormley’s work. Through the power of visualization and concentration, you’ll discover how the mind can reshape your experience of form and space, opening the door to a deeper sense of personal well-being, freedom, and ease.
