Hello dear ones!
I am excited to announce that we are doing another Winter Buddhist Retreat at the beach. Last year’s retreat was powerful, transformative and heart-warming to another level. I yearn to do that more often!
And here we are again. It will be from Dec 19th – 30th. I am assisting in the facilitation along with Janet Evergreen. We would prefer people come for the first half or second half of the retreat if they are not able to attend all of it. However, we can work with people’s schedules (we do need to know when you would be planning to attend however and we want to limit comings and goings because that is distracting to the practice).
There are six bedrooms and at present, three are available. People can share bedrooms and there are a couple of sleeper sofas. It is a beautiful house in Sandbridge Virginia.
We will be doing a mixture of embodying exercises including silent sitting meditation, Zapchen Somatics – playful exercises which healthily bring us down out of our heads and into our hearts, working with the Jhanas (cultivating sublime states of mind), Dreamwork and Qigong.
It is a dynamic experience, and if you want to do your own practice for part of the day that is fine. There will be delicious organic food and the magic of the beach as well!
We are asking $350 for room and board (what a deal!) or $50 / night otherwise.
