Melting Snow Globes!

Thursday, March 11, 2010

The recent Amazing weather reanimated the old ‘Must Walk Gene”, as it was an absolutely gorgeous day (must be why they call it “Mother” Nature), i followed the collective decision to get out and enjoy. Walking for me is always a positive. More so in good weather, better yet near water. As i walked and [...]

Three Boabom Haiku

Friday, March 5, 2010

Breathing through movement. Barely can do this new move. Samut: “Too easy.” Balance improves, but… Flailing arms and legs. Watch out! Someone yells “Timber!” Angry arrival. Meditation in movement. Why was I so mad? – The Other Anonymous Student (Boabom North)

the Car Wash

Thursday, February 25, 2010

Went to the car wash today, i know it is a waste of good water and the soap probably is not so good for the environment, but it is a necessary evil. Well for as long as i drive a car and when occasionally, i can’t bear to see it so grimy. Maybe i should [...]

A Student’s Exhortation for Contributions!

Thursday, February 4, 2010

Just occurred to me that i truly enjoy checking in with The Boabom Journal. Often with anticipation, as to what new thought provoking and insightful positive it will hold. At times there will be a gap between entries, which could for one less secure prove a disappointment, or a let down. Last time the Journal [...]

Form of Meditation

Tuesday, December 8, 2009

“When we understand that this-finding that quiet place within where thinking ends and consciousness begins- is the most important goal and purpose of meditation, then it’s easier to understand and use the various forms of meditation. Nearly every spiritual tradition on Earth has developed some form of meditative practice, and each is intended to arrive [...]

Boabom Poem…

Friday, November 20, 2009

“Beginning” Slow as the movement of the trees, the hands and legs reflect the art of the wind. Precise as the sunrays that greet the Earth, there is no hurry in the breathing itself. Mysterious as the movement of the stars at night, it’s forms become one with the time-space. Circles, and shapes the mind-body [...]

Drifting… and Discipline

Saturday, June 13, 2009

A few weeks after I had begun taking Boabom classes, I was on the phone with my father in India, telling him about my exotic new activity. In my description, I paraphrased what my teacher said: about how one could leave one’s troubles and concerns behind while in the classroom and focus on something else [...]

Boabom on the Brain

Thursday, May 14, 2009

      When you’re doing brain science you can get lost in the details — there are mountains of theory and data aimed at making sense of how humans and animals adapt to an ever-changing world. My work focuses on how animals and humans learn. Boabom has given me a refreshingly holistic take on [...]

Thinking Again

Tuesday, May 12, 2009

  Lately I spend more time thinking about thinking. The Boston School of Boabom has opened up a new path for me, a path with many questions, many options and a whole new way of looking at things… or maybe it is actually an old way of looking at things: a healthier, honest and more clear [...]

Artistic Expressions: Speed Painting in Photoshop

Friday, May 8, 2009

Artistic expressions have changed over time. Some of them have kept their essence, like Boabom, because it is a practice that seeks to activate mind and body, which seem to keep their form through generations.  Nevertheless, in recent years there have risen amazing technologies that have begun ti allow new means of expression. Thinking of image [...]

Thanks to Boabom, an energy is flowing within me that I did not know before, a strength I did not know I had; my mind and body are synchronized, allowing a more harmonious flow.   Francisca (Boabom South)

Letters from Paul: Why am I here?

Tuesday, April 28, 2009

      Actually it is more about how I came to be here, at The Boston School of Boabom. I had begun to question many things: things about me, my life, how and what I had accepted. I felt a need for change. A need to start searching again. I believe I did so when [...]
