The workshop includes guided meditations, practical advice on building energy, stillness, and introspection, and a Q&A session, ensuring a comprehensive learning experience.
We will engage deeply with the cultivation of quietude through classic breathing meditation (Anapanasati) and explore a unique approach to insight meditation that emphasizes the universal mechanics of the practice. This workshop strips away the jargon, opening a clear, accessible path for all who seek to explore their inner world and understand meditation on a profound level.
About the Teacher
Tobi Warzinek’s journey into mindfulness began in 2002 at the Rabten Choeling Tibetan Buddhist monastery, deepening his understanding of meditation and Buddhist teachings over seven years. Transitioning to the Thai (Theravada) tradition in 2011, he focused on practical mind training. Tobi’s teaching philosophy is straightforward—addressing everyday mental challenges such as distraction and stress with clear, practical solutions. He advocates for a closer examination of our thoughts and feelings to foster a more balanced and fulfilling life. Through his years of teaching, Tobi has focused on demystifying meditation, making it accessible and pertinent to daily life, and guiding others towards finding peace and clarity amidst life’s chaos.
