Awaken Your Creativity Through Dance

Awaken Your Creativity Through Dance. A Meditation event conducted by Niyam Bhushan on 11 Jan 2020 from 9:30AM to 12:30PM. At Tao 99 Ghitorni New Delhi

Ping Me

Dance is Bliss

This Dance Meditation event helps you unlock explosive creativity within you. Making your life and work:

      • More delightful
      • More beautiful
      • More intelligent
      • More joyous

And yes, definitely a lilttle more crazy and fun.

Combined with meditative techniques, dance becomes a great transformational force. One that dissolves creative blocks, fires up your imagination, puts you back in touch with your feelings, and gets that creative flow gushing through you again.

But all that is secondary. If you go deep, dance is the most direct path with which to experience a sense of ecstatic liberation, and get that priceless taste of bliss and freedom.

Dance makes you erupt with joy
Dance makes you erupt with joy

The techniques of meditation used here are from ‘Awaken Your Creativity Through Design-Think‘ which is a 4-day/3-nights Meditation and Design Retreat. Conducted earlier in July 2019, that was a mind-blowing experience for participants, get a glimpse of it here.
