Zen meditation in Berlin
Zen meditation is a structured training of awareness. At its centre is silent sitting (zazen) in an upright posture – awake, attentive, present. Zen has its roots in Chinese Chan Buddhism and was developed further in Japan; it combines precision in practice with immediate everyday relevance.

Meditation course for beginners and experienced meditators
Each session begins with a gentle breathing exercise. You then receive a personal meditation task tailored to your level of experience. Between two silent phases, a short walking meditation connects body and presence.
- Arrival and breathwork · 5–7 min
- Introduction and personal task · 15–20 min
- Silent meditation I · 15–20 min
- Walking meditation · 5–8 min
- Silent meditation II · 10–15 min
This is how you can learn to meditate – or deepen an existing practice.

Why meditation works
Studies on mindfulness and silent sitting meditation (e.g. from MBSR research) show effects on perceived stress, attention and rumination. Meditation trains the “musculus attentionis” – the ability to direct attention consciously. More on our Science page.
