RETREAT TO BE HELD ON THE LAND!

Prerequisite: Completion of a mindfulness meditation class or retreat (online or in-person) and a regular mindfulness practice.

Description:
We will train in three interrelated modes of practice. First, we will settle and stabilize our minds and bodies, becoming more concentrated, through sitting and moving forms of meditation, including regular Qigong.

As we settle, we will become better able to closely examine our experience of our bodies, thoughts, and emotions, and the general patterns of experience, on the personal and universal levels. We will see more clearly when we are reactive, when we suffer, and when there is a thick sense of self. Plus, we will learn to be more with the impermanent flow of experience.

We will also tune in more, as we settle and see, to an increasingly unconfined and luminous awareness beyond reactivity, which is a source of freedom, wisdom, and compassion in retreat practice and in daily life.

Scholarship offerings: In returning to the land, we will also be returning to our pre-pandemic scholarship options and policies. All scholarship rates require a minimum fee ($50/night). While we are not able to offer “no one turned away”-type of scholarships for in-person retreats, they are still available for online offerings.

Description:
At this time of the Winter Solstice, of maximum darkness, we will take stock of our lives and strengthen our orientation toward wisdom and compassion in all parts of our lives. We will remind ourselves of impermanence and the fragility of everything, of our tendencies at times to reactivity rather than responsiveness, and of our interdependence. Seeing clearly how things are and our vulnerability to confusion, how could we be other than kind? Developing our kindness, through seeing when we are not kind, is the great work of the purification of the heart. As we go back to the fundamentals of the wise heart, our insight and commitments can deepen, and we may also arrive at new understandings and directions that can guide us in this next cycle of our lives.

In this two-day retreat, we will support this process with sitting and walking meditation, short talks, and discussion.

All are welcome! No one will be turned away for lack of funds as space allows. For more information, please email Registration@spiritrock.org.
