Date: November 21, 2020. 10:00am – 4:30pm
Sliding Scale: $20-$250. Code FR2D20.
Please Note: This retreat is now offered online only. We invite you to try this creative form of practice as we take care of one another and respond skillfully to COVID-19.
Description:
When we employ compassion as a heart practice, it allows us to be present in challenging moments and times. Compassion allows us to hold suffering wisely, allowing us to grow and heal from our life experiences with kindness and care. During this day, we will include meditations, sharing, and discussions that nurture us as we honor those we have lost and engage joy as a tool for our resilience.
We will join in community, as Trans* and Gender Queer/Gender Variant people and invited cis loved ones to share our stories, our practice, and create a space to practice freeing our hearts.
This day retreat is suitable for both new and experienced practitioners and is an opportunity to practice in a space which will be lead and held by Trans* identified individuals.
