About this Event
<h4>There is a deep well of vibrant inner knowing that is alive within.</h4><h4>Cultivating mindfulness in the stillness of nature helps us awaken this natural wisdom, and bring more connection and peace to our lives.</h4>
In deep connection with nature, amongst the exotic flora of ANANDA, we will dive into a meditative journey to awaken the light of presence,
and remember the nature of Self.

Take a rest from the rush and return to the simplicity of the present moment.
Mindfulness
In turning our attention within and cultivating equanimity and compassion we grow our capacity to face life’’s challenges with resolve. By taking a sit and examining our experience with intention we open the possibility to discern what is true and fulfilling for us, and to uncover our inner path to freedom.
Nature Sensing
Through enlivening the senses and immersions with the elements we will deepen awareness of our interbeingness with the natural world, and open ourselves to receive nourishment from nature.
Vegan Food
A clear and nourished body is essential for the cultivation of inner stillness and presence. By incorporating nourishing vegan food into our retreat program, we provide participants with the opportunity to keep the physical vessel light and vibrant allowing for greater receptivity to the transformative benefits of meditation.
Facilitated by Jawai Shamayim
Upon returning from a year-long journey of cultivating mindfulness in remote natural environments, Jawai is inspired to share natural presence with others. He combines 24 years of meditation, 12 years of holistic psychotherapy practice and teaching mindfulness with his love for people, to assist those who feel the call to find peace within, and live a life filled with love and presence.
What if we become more present, and begin to love ourselves unconditionally...
