      <title>IMU Meditation Center Organizes a Unique Meditation Course "Attaining a Mastery of Moods" in Chicago</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">On Saturday, May 19, 1:30pm - 6:30pm, Inner Metamorphosis University takes the meditation participants on the path of inner discovery with their unique meditation course “Attaining a Mastery of Moods” at the Chicago based meditation center. In this course, one is empowered with the ability to respond rather than react to challenges.</p><p>Chicago, IL -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 05/14/2012 --  At Inner Metamorphosis University (IMU) the meditation courses are designed specifically to discover and enhance the state of a vibrant and wakeful inner quietness. On Saturday, May 19, 1:30pm - 6:30pm, IMU takes the participants on the path of inner discovery with their unique meditation course "Attaining a Mastery of Moods" at the Chicago based meditation center. <br />
<br />
"Attaining a Mastery of Moods" incorporates meditations and exercises which empower one to act with responsibility in one&apos;s life.  That simply means one is empowered with the ability to respond rather than react to challenges. In this course, each individual is encouraged free and conscious expression of one&apos;s feelings.  A supportive setting and orientations are given to do so without harming anyone.<br />
<br />
Furthermore this course also offers techniques to silently be with and observe one&apos;s inner emotional, mental as well as energetic states without having to express or suppress any of them. One thereby becomes able to respond out of sensibility and intelligence, rather than reacting automatically in provoking situations.  The ability to respond forms the foundation for establishing loving and caring connections with oneself and friends. Below is the glimpse of few exercises offered at this course: <br />
<br />
Navaras: A way to allow the deliberate and conscious expression of various emotional states accompanied by a witnessing presence to oneself. Besides an energetic release of tensions, this is to discover what deeper identification, belief and conditioning within us trigger those emotions. The process is with oneself only without interaction with others.<br />
 <br />
Gibberish: This meditative exercise is a way to empty the mind. The expression of "what&apos;s on one&apos;s mind" without language, allows stepping out of the content of the mind-story into an energetic experience of the inner hidden states and blockages. The process is with oneself only without interaction with others.<br />
 <br />
Some partner exercises: They will offer the possibility to use the other as a "mirror". For example, by facing another person while consciously paying attention to what goes on within, allows one to become aware of one&apos;s value systems, viewpoints and judgments.  By containing as well as being a witness to one&apos;s conditionings enables one to recognize the relative truth of it all, allowing other perspectives to peacefully co-exist. <br />
<br />
Like most of the courses, it will include periods of Silence, Dance and Celebration as well as time to share experiences or ask questions.<br />
<br />
Amona and Jeffrey facilitating this meditation course are also the founders of The Inner Metamorphosis University (IMU), Chicago. Initiated by the mystic, Bhashkar Perinchery, since 2005 IMU has established itself into a unique non-profit meditation center in Chicago where various weekly meditation classes, courses, workshops and guest events are organized for inner development all round the year.

      <title>3-Week Osho Intensive Meditation Event in Chicago by IMU</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>Chicago, IL -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sbwire.com/">SBWIRE</a>) -- 04/04/2012 --  Inner Metamorphosis University (I.M.U.), a meditation center in Chicago, is organizing a 3-week Osho Meditation Intensive Event which will run from June 3rd to June 24th 2012. This Osho meditation event includes meditation techniques that take into consideration the physical, mental and emotional difficulties that modern people face and help discover how to live a more fulfilled life. This meditation event in Chicago is open to people from all walks of life. Osho Active Meditations will help one get a new perspective on life. <br />
<br />
Amona&apos;s quote "This Meditation intensive workshop will not only present a wonderful jump start for beginners but is also perfect for people who have a regular meditation practice at our IMU Meditation Center.  Through these unique intense approaches one will discover many surprises within oneself that have been dormant in the unconscious and inhibiting one in subtle ways from being fully alive." Osho&apos;s meditations are being practiced regularly by millions of people around the world in hundreds of Osho centers. Osho said, "If one wants to live a more fulfilled life, first one should to know ones potential, who one really is. Meditation is the route to that knowing. It is the science of awareness."<br />
<br />
Each day of this meditation event is split into morning and evening meditation sessions. In the morning session, the participants will be guided through two sessions of meditation: the Osho Dynamic Meditation which is an hour long intense meditation and a perfect way to kick start the day. It is followed by half hour break for shower and tea in silence. The second meditation of the day is the Osho Vipassana Meditation, in which the participants learn the process of watching themselves without interfering with or judging whatever comes into notice.<br />
<br />
The evening sessions are also split into two meditations: the Osho Kundalini Meditation which is designed for people willing shake off all the stress gathered through the day and the Osho Discourse that focuses more on getting participants to experience inner silence.<br />
<br />
Additionally, the breakfast and dinner, which is essentially all organic and vegetarian, is also included in the workshop. <br />
<br />
Moreover participants may be pleased to know that the events is arranged in such a flexible way that they can also choose to attend all or just some selected meditations in either a one week or a two-week format in our meditation center, though, the full three-week workshop remains the best option. <br />
<br />
A free questions and answers session will also be organized ahead of the Intensive Meditations Workshop to let people know what to expect. This will be offered on Saturday, May 26 from 5:30pm to 7:00pm.<br />
<br />
Finally, Inner Metamorphosis University as the venue of this meditation intensive event is an ideal meditation center in Chicago for participants to always enjoy their meditation experience. IMU has been helping people deepen and celebrate their life through meditation for more than 7 years now. Apart from the Osho Meditation Intensive Workshop, IMU organizes a variety of workshops, retreats and meditation events in Chicago to discover and enhance a state of inner peace and silence which is the basis for spontaneity, joy and celebration.<br />
