Feeding Your Demons: Conversations with the Virus with Daniel Shankin
I’m sure you’ve heard people reporting that they’ve gone into meditation and ‘talked to the coronavirus’. Is this even possible? I don’t know if it’s possible to talk to a virus, and even if it is, I don’t know if it’s even going to share reliable information. How can we tell if an intelligent, communicative virus is even honest? What is clear, is that we can dig deep into our subconscious mind and have conversations with our various projections about the virus; our fears, anxieties and confusions. We’ll explore a simple but profound practice called Feeding Your Demons®. It’s a five step visualization meditation that will guide us into a conversation with our darker, more unpleasant emotions. We’ll practice finding compassion for these parts of ourselves and explore personal healing practices that we can do to find peace in these turbulent times.
After a profound and intense awakening experience in 1998, Daniel dove deep into his yoga and meditation practice to stabilize his realization in his body and the world. He began teaching in 2002, and took over leadership of his neighborhood yoga studio in 2004. He’s directed several teacher training programs and taught on the faculty of even more.
