Concentration exercises facilitate our ability to overcome difficulties, because practising concentration awakens our inner self and helps us to have better control. In this seminar, led by Fernand Schwarz, author of the book "Concentration and Inner Awakening", we will develop the importance of energetic, breathing and mental practices, drawn from the tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, to achieve Samatha, mental calm.
