Meeting Life With A Steady Heart - Spring Retreat

Hugh Byrne, Luisa Montero-Diaz and Rebecca Hines

Saturday, Apr 27, 04:00 PM - Friday, May 3, 01:00 PM in Madison, Virginia

Amidst the challenges and uncertainties in our own lives and in the world today, the Buddha’s teachings provide practices that guide us on a path to cultivate clarity, compassion, and equanimity—to meet life with a steady and balanced heart.

During this week-long silent retreat, we will explore the benefits of coming into stillness and quiet as we practice together with the support of community. We will focus on practices that incline the mind, body, and heart toward calm and steadiness, and that allow us to touch a deep sense of rest and well-being that is always available, even when conditions are difficult, in meditation and in daily life.

Our time together will include silent and guided sitting meditation, walking meditation, movement, dharma talks, instructions, Q&A, and small group meetings with the teachers.
