  • Spring Weekend Retreat

    The Clearing 14006 Genito Road, Amelia CH, VA, United States

    A retreat is a great way to unplug from the busyness of daily life and find some restfulness and ease. This retreat will be held partly, or mostly, outdoors, weather permitting. This is a wonderful chance to try a silent meditation retreat while surrounded by the beauty of nature. We follow the old tradition of using nature to support our spiritual journey. Nature has a lot of teachings for us, and we will explore some of those during this weekend.

    Daylong Retreat: Natural Awareness

    The Innerwork Center 213 Roseneath Road, Richmond, VA, United States

    During this day we will learn how open and relaxed awareness can help us to cultivate a broad and skillful understanding of our moment-to-moment experience. This retreat’s teachings will emphasize approaching meditation with relaxed interest. Participants will be encouraged to allow experience to be known in a simple way as it naturally unfolds. This integrated approach to practice is inspired by the teaching style of the Burmese monk Sayadaw U Tejaniya. It has proven to be a useful lens on meditation for beginning and experienced practitioners alike.

  • The Path of Peace

    Ekoji 3411 Grove Avenue, Richmond, VA, United States

    Please join us for an hour and a half of metta and compassion for our beloved world community. With metta practice, we cultivate an attitude of befriending, attending, and good will. We do not have to love or like what we see. With compassion, we cultivate the capacity to touch into suffering, allowing our hearts to break open.
