Coming Home
This silent retreat will focus on the making ourselves at home in the present moment, and care about what it is we find it.
With radical, acceptance, we see what’s possible when we meet ourselves just as we are. Lure we are not alone, we get to do this together.
This retreat will be conducted in silence except, for exploration sessions and teacher interviews.
Our daily schedule will include periods of sitting meditation, walking meditation, and mindful movement to help us connect body, mind, and heart.
The retreat will will include guided meditations, small group interviews with the teacher, exercises exploration, and discussions.

In the Presence of Love
A Metta & Qigong Retreat
This silent retreat will focus on cultivating the quality of lovingkindness (mettā in Pāli), infusing our hearts, minds, and bodies with a strong, caring wisdom. Awareness as developed through mindfulness practice leads to clarity, insight, and understanding. Lovingkindness practices open the heart, allow a kind embrace of ourselves, and connect us intimately with all of life. The fusion of these qualities helps us to respond more compassionately to the challenges that we encounter in ourselves and in the world.
Right now it’s like this. — Ajahn Sumedho
