Autumnal Songs 
October 5th - 7th

Friday evening - Sunday evening

including Sumarah meditation with Beate Stühm

Listening to the songs of the earth and trees as the leaves begin to turn. Rooted and supple in body and spirit, allowing ourselves to be supported by and responsive to the beauty of the world around us.

Sumarah
is a Javanese form of meditation. It means to surrender, to let go of fighting in our lives. It is a practice of receiving, accepting and becoming more aware, this leads to a deep relaxation of the body, mind and emotions. Each day there will be a guided Special Meditation, a time of sitting together and receiving guidance, daily meditation is continued in our every day life. No experience of meditation is necessary.

Sumarah meditation has a close affinity to, and provides a clear support for this approach to movement practice. No financial remuneration is received for Sumarah guidance, necessary expenses will be covered by the workshop fee.

Beate Stühm is a movement artist, who trained with Anna Halprin and Suprapto Suryodarmo. She has practised Sumarah Meditation since 1987, with Pak Wondo in Java and Laura Romano in Europe. She was a member of the Sumarah Meditation Guidance Training (2003-2005) led by Laura Romano.
