| Our body can be a vehicle for liberation in this life, containing all that we need to wake up. Yet we may not know how to relate to the body to support this kind of freedom. In this retreat, we will practice ways of connecting to our body with loving awareness while recognizing ourselves as part of nature, which includes developing awareness of our mortality. Together we will engage in the practices of the Buddhist path in silence—sitting, walking, resting, and eating—supported by nature on the land at Spirit Rock.
This retreat is silent except for teacher-led Q&A, small groups, or other practice meetings. All experience levels are welcome, however this retreat is not recommended for those who have recently had a significant traumatic experience, or who have difficulty being present with the body. |
