In this chapter, the speakers guide the listeners through a mindful examination of a still life arrangement of flowers, encouraging close observation of the details and inviting the listener to engage their senses by imagining the smells, tastes, and textures of the objects. They reflect on the symbolism of the wilted flowers and discuss the importance of rituals and sensory experiences in our daily lives.
As mentioned in yesterday's program, here’s a taste of one of the Culture Dose sessions called 'Joy in everyday life'. Head to our program webapge for a brief meditative exercise with Katherine Boydell from the Black Dog Institute, then Access Programs Producer at the Art Gallery of NSW, Danielle Gullotta, guides the viewer through the painting.
