Relating – The Way of Sensory Awareness

Workshops and Classes with Stefan Laeng

Sensory Awareness is a movement-based mindfulness practice, reconnecting us with the living moment. Everyday movements rather than exercises, playful explorations, quiet attentiveness rather than effort, take us to a place of renewed engagement.

How can we be content in a world that does not run according to our plans? How do we live in the midst of uncertainty?
Through the practice of Sensory Awareness, we learn to fully connect with life as it is, a stream of experience, ever-changing and awesome. Grounded in the moment, we are freed to act from a place of curiosity rather than ambition – engaging with reality rather than fighting it. 

One-On-One Work
Individual sessions are a great way to take the work to an even deeper level. Studying one on one, you receive undivided attention and the unfolding of the session follows your individual needs moment by moment. Learn more …

Workshop in Bern

Wenn wir uns mit Interesse und Feingefühl der Welt zuwenden, bringt uns das auch in tieferen Kontakt mit unseren eigenen Prozessen und Möglichkeiten. Wenn wir uns mit derselben Einstellung nach innen wenden, können wir von da her die äussere Welt in ihrer Vielfältigkeit neu schätzen lernen und wirksamer handeln.

Sensory Awareness meets MBSR

mit Renée Maria Kraemmer und Stefan Laeng in Freiburg i. Br.

Vertraute und bewährte Formen von Übungen, die uns bei der Erforschung eines achtsamen Lebens einen sicheren Rahmen bieten, nutzen wir im MBSR. Dagegen lädt uns Sensory Awareness dazu ein, auf intuitive Weise mit dem Unmittelbaren vertraut zu werden und jenseits von vorgegebenen Formen auf das Leben zu reagieren.

A Taste of Sensory Awareness

Everything is Related

This is an excerpt from the longer practice recording "A Gesture of Presence,” which gives you more of an opportunity to practice.

Responding to a comment by a class participant, I talk about how the "work with gravity makes it so immediately clear how everything is in relationship all the time." For example: By touching and lifting a stone (anything, really) we enter a relationship – that of the stone with the earth.
