Transformation Through Mindfulness
Through being and accepting what is happening within us, staying with experience and learning to see more clearly we can taste into a mind and heartfulness that is larger than our habits that keep us stuck.The practice of Mindfulness supports us in discovery of who we are beyond our limiting histories, stories and ideas. Grounding into our bodies through bringing presence to our breath, our flesh and bones, our sensations we come into the shared embodied realm. We may find an aliveness, interconnectedness and sensitivity that is profoundly transformative when we are more embodied. Drawing on tools from the Buddha's teaching we will embark on this voyage together, in a shared context, with the inner journey of each of us also finding its own inner way. The retreat will be held in noble silence; there will be dharma teachings as well as one to one interviews, guided and silent meditations and sunrise qigong with Shogan.
