This retreat invites you to explore insight and the awakening of the heart. Drawing on a traditional image of the mind being gently cleansed and brightened, we will learn to recognize and release difficult mindstates so that qualities like clarity, confidence, and kindness can naturally arise
A day of a silent retreat offers a rare opportunity to step out of the constant movement of daily life and rediscover the quiet clarity that is always available beneath it. With the theme Stillness in Daily Life, this retreat invites you to explore how inner calm is not something separate from ordinary living, but something that can gently infuse every moment.
A retreat is a wonderful way to unplug from the busyness of daily life and find 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 the Virginia forest. We follow the ancient tradition of using nature to support our spiritual journey. Nature has a many teachings for us, and we will explore some of those throughout the weekend.
