Description
Spend the morning with us in quiet contemplation. A half-day retreat can be surprisingly refreshing and insightful! Begin the new year cultivating balance and calm: resting in stillness.
We will use mindfulness to investigate the nature of our experience; including periods of seated and walking meditation, and instructions for practice (dharma). We will practice silence in the supportive company of others. This retreat is suitable for new and experienced meditators.
Offered freely (by donation*)
*In the tradition of the Buddha, the teacher will offer instruction (dharma) freely and will be accepting donations. The practice of giving (dana) happens on the side of the teacher when they share the teachings and their experience, and happens on the side of the student when they support the teacher, in accordance with their means.
