The purpose of meditation is to cultivate mindfulness. And though we all could use some of that in our lives that are filled with information overload and apps that literally use our attention as currency, sitting down and focusing on our breaths while our minds race can be difficult. A few decades ago meditation took the shape of movement and dance with rave culture where you could let your mind ride the sound waves for hours without a single thought. Now the same principle is used in dynamic meditations where mindfulness is achieved through focus on not just breath but your whole body.
Practicing the same, Ecstatic World is an inclusive global conscious community-based platform creating transformational experiences with Ecstatic Dance as 'Dance for Wellness' for all. It was founded by Kannakee Bhuyan from Assam with the makers of Odessa Amsterdam, pioneering conscious clubbing in Amsterdam since 2016. They initiate regular conscious dance chapters, host holistic retreats and mentor talents for the same mainly in Europe and India.
