Awake From the Ground

Ah, to be grounded in the depth of timeless presence, in daily life, amidst the changing sands of experience.

In cultivating a quality of restful wakefulness, that embraces each moment of our life with acceptance and wisdom, we can make intimate contact with the natural world, and the very nature of things. We will inquire how to live a life of deep ground, being yourself in peace with others, and yet doing what needs to be done.

With a spirit of kindness, we engage in meditative practices that support realignment and embodiment. Insight Meditation practice will be supported by instructions, guided meditations, Loving-Kindness meditation, being in nature, and regular meetings with the teachers. This retreat also includes movement practice in addition to the walking meditation practice.
