This is the official website dedicated to the fine oil paintings of Elia Astfjord, and the fascinating use of them as a tool for meditation.

The purpose of this website is to make Elia Astfjord’s meditative art known to a wider public, and to spread the information about the vast possibilities of using the art as a tool for personal development.

In the 1980's, Elia Astfjord began to use his skills in painting as a means, in order to deepen his self-knowledge. He soon realised, however, that his abstract art actually contained some essential elements, which could also be of important use to other people. The art transformed to also being a therapist tool for meditation, and he has nowadays, from increasing demand, combined his accomplished artistry with teaching in meditation.

People from all parts of Sweden and other parts of the world are nowadays using various paintings by Elia Astfjord. They meditate upon the paintings, either by themselves or together with others, in order to promote their personal development. It has so fare been done using real paintings, or prints of the paintings, together with instructions of how to meditate.

Now Elia opens up a new, unique and refreshing possibility for meditating on the paintings. He is launching the computer meditation. It is interesting because, now so many more can reach the benefits from meditating on the art.

This is why Elia launches this digital meditation, which also increases the chances of getting it done, in our computerised and busy world of today. You can always find some spare time during the day. Maybe while commuting on the train, during the rest breaks at work or at home, and it will soon be something you will look forward to doing.
