A mindful art experience

Let yourself be taken on a personal journey, with the power of electronic music and sound through a guided visual meditation. Jolien Posthumus created this program especially for Amsterdam Dance Event in 2022 and has since been a successful program at various events. Electronic music is taken out of the dance floor context and integrated into a proven meditation practice that supports your mental health. With this program, Museum of the Mind, Parallel and ADE want to emphasize the positive impact of art and music on mental health.

There are 2 time slots available to choose from. All materials to participate will be provided. The meditation takes place in a quiet environment, inviting you to remain in silence and offering enough space not to be disturbed by other participants. All materials to participate (meditation cushion, paper and colored pencil) will be provided. Feel free to bring your own meditation equipment. You may want to wear comfortable clothing, whatever works best for you. Come as you are. No drawing experience is required. Special thanks to preferred partner Yogisha for sponsoring the meditation cushions.
