Join Duncan for a weekend of reflection, rejuvenation, relaxation and restoration. The retreat is based on the ancient practices of hatha and raja yoga and is open to all levels of ability, including beginners, who wish to understand the fundamentals of yoga and develop, or deepen, their own practice. In the tranquil environment of the Buddhist Retreat Centre, we will discover how shatkarmas (cleansing techniques), asanas (postures), pranayama (control of the breath), mudra (gestures to manipulate and stimulate the energies in the body), bandhas (energy locks with the body) bring us into equilibrium. These traditional practices will help us to develop awareness of body, mind and breath. As the body gently opens like a lotus flower, and we start to release our past impressions, so the mind becomes relaxed preparing us for meditation. We will follow traditional guided meditation techniques in the meditation hall and in the labyrinth to quieten the mind, calm anxieties, recover balance in life and enhance creativity, insight and self-reflection.

Breath, Body, Bowl - An Introduction To Meditation And Buddhism
This weekend retreat offers a grounded introduction to Buddhist meditation. Whether you are completely new to the practice or returning to the basics, this is an opportunity to slow down, reconnect, and begin again — right where you are.
With breath as our anchor and body as our home, we settle into the immediacy of the present moment. The bowl reminds us to empty ourselves of distraction, to receive whatever the moment offers, and to meet experience with humility and care.
The retreat will include guided sitting and walking meditation, open discussions on the principles of the Buddhist philosophy, and time for quiet reflection. Together, we will explore how awareness, kindness, and clarity naturally arise through steady, embodied practice — supported by the stillness of the BRC and the power of shared silence.
All are welcome, regardless of background or belief. No prior experience with meditation is needed.
