Slowly and Quietly — Three-Day Intensive

Веретенников Сергей · Thursday at 11:23 AM

THREE DAYS OF PRACTICE — SOMETHING THAT CAN STAY WITH YOU FOR LIFE

During these three days, those who took part in Sergei Veretennikov’s intensive course “Slowly and Quietly” learned to enter a special state of consciousness — one of inner unhurriedness and calm.

If you have felt this state, do not rush to let it go. You can maintain it amid your everyday activities or return to it whenever you wish. Gradually, it may become increasingly familiar.

The intensive course has already ended. But to those who took part, I want to say: do not rush to end the practice itself.

It is already woven into your life. You do not need to make time for it in your schedule or wait for the right place. You continue to live, work, and communicate — and practice.

This is how I build my practices: once you have mastered them, you gain a tool that stays with you for life. You can turn to it when you need support, when you want to return to yourself and feel more calm within.

The intensive course materials are freely available in the “Your Yoga — Veretennikov School” community. You can always return to them, refresh your experience, or try them for the first time.

If you have any thoughts, observations, or questions left after the intensive course, write in the comments. Perhaps something has only become clearer to you now. I will be interested to read them.

I practiced on all three days. I really enjoyed this state—moving slowly and quietly. But I would get distracted, and thoughts would shift to the fact that I needed to hurry and do certain things. Then I would return to the practice and slow down again. It worked very well—slowing down and calming myself during a walk by the river. I noticed the beauty of nature, which I had not really paid attention to before, because even in nature my thoughts were occupied with things I had not done. I will keep learning. Thank you for this intensive; it was very useful for me.

Day 1.
I’m a very slow person by nature. My mother was always rushing me and scolding me: “Try to be faster, faster.” And that’s how it is... I’ve been rushing myself my whole life; otherwise, I don’t manage to get anything done. But when I read the description of this practice here and started doing it, I realized one thing. It feels like becoming aware of yourself. I may be slow, but when I consciously slow myself down, a certain mindfulness arises in my movements. In other words, when you don’t do everything on autopilot, there is more awareness.

A wonderful intensive, just right for me, a person who is always in a hurry. I’ll practise it—I’ve even stuck these words to the front door so they’re always in view and remind me: SLOWLY AND QUIETLY. Such a necessary state of calm and mindfulness.
