Workshops & Meditations
Here's a list of the workshops and meditations that will be on offer at the Puravida Summer Festie, July 2010.
We also have a Healing Centre open offering massage and other therapies. Meditations at Osho Leela are mostly active meditations and social meditations. Both involve quite a lot of body movement and in social meditations you interact with other participants also. All workshops and meditations are led by qualified and experienced people. Please bring loose clothing
