To be aware of our internal experiences and care for them with the love and com passion they deserve is not always easy\, yet an important factor on our p ath to true happiness. On this 3-day retreat we will embark on a journey i nto our inner world. Together\, step by step\, we will deepen our awarenes s of bodily sensations\, thoughts and emotions and learn how to relate to them skilfully to ease suffering.\n\n \;\n\nVen. Candā will gently gu ide us in meeting our moment-to-moment experience with a sense of letting go\, kindness and non-harm. We will learn to understand what makes the min d peaceful and how every experience can be used to gain insight and cultiv ate the good in ourselves. Through developing kindness and friendship towa rds all that arises - and passes away - we will increase our ability to be aware of this body and mind process\, to understand its true nature and t o guide ourselves in the direction of wholesomeness\, freedom and peace.\n \n \;\n\nThe retreat will consist of daily Dhamma reflections\, guided meditations and an opportunity for Q&\;A. You will also be guided in w alking\, eating and resting (!) meditation\, and will have space for your own quiet reflection in the early mornings and evenings. On the last day o f the retreat there will be an opportunity to share New Year aspirations a nd meet with each other in small groups.\n\n \;\n\n \;\n\nThe roug h outline of the retreat is as follows:\n\n \;\n\n[07:30 - 08:00 am Op tional silent group meditation\, days 2 &\; 3]\n\n09:30 - 10:45 am Dham ma reflection &\; Guided meditation\n\n10:45 - 11:15 am Walking meditat ion &\; Instruction\n\n11:15 - 01:30 pm Cooking\, eating\, resting medi tation\n\n01:30 - 02:30 pm Dhamma reflection &\; Guided meditation\n\n0 2:30 - 03:00 pm Walking meditation\n\n03:15 - 03:30 pm Silent group medita tion\n\n03:30 - 04:15 pm Tea Break and Q&\;A / sharing\n\n04:15 - 04:30 pm Loving Kindness meditation\n\n \; CATEGORIES:2020 Tour END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
