EVENT DESCRIPTION
When the world’s stronger winds begin to blow, we can easily become uprooted and feel tossed around by life’s more capricious gales storms. In these times, we can benefit from anchoring our awareness and rooting our physical presence into the ground of being. Within Dhamma (Sanskrit: Dharma) teachings, we can know this ground through what the Buddha described as ‘the root of all things’ – that is, the cause of suffering and the path to its cessation.
In this daylong retreat, we will cultivate practices that connect us more solidly to the roots of our experience. Through Dhamma teachings, meditation and qigong, we will explore how to meet life’s blustery winds with the freedom and insight granted by the steady anchor of presence.
No prior qigong or meditation experience is required.
