Join in community for a day of mindfulness meditation practice focused on cultivating compassion for others. I believe that compassion is the medicine we need to carry us through the divisive, polarizing time that we live in. We will explore the process of alchemizing anger into compassion and love, and how the redemptive power of love can usher in a more connected, understanding, and caring world.
This daylong / half-day retreat will consist of:
+ Seated & walking meditation practice
+ Opening dharma talk
+ Guided meditation instruction
+ Noble silence
+ Mindful eating
