Edel Maex & Henk Oosterling

Tussen Oost en West

Learning to think with your body, like in Japanese martial arts, is becoming increasingly popular in the West. Dutch philosopher Henk Oosterling explores the connection between this Buddhist-oriented body-thought and Western, critical rationality: is it possible to bridge the two extremes? He is joined by psychologist and zen teacher Edel Maex – one of the founders of Mindfulness Training in our regions. He has been leading a group in Antwerp for several years.
