Workshops & Meditations
Here's a list of the workshops and meditations that will be on offer at Puravida, March 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
Here's what's on offer ...
