Labor Day - Weekend - Payson Arizona
September 3-6 2021 - 4 Day - Silent Mindfulness & Meditation Retreat - Payson Arizona
This is a wonderful opportunity to experience and enjoy the peacefulness of nature as it blends with the stillness of mind that has been a trade mark of these retreats. A weekend of silence and peace has served many over the past years. Join us this Labor day weekend.
This retreat will focus on concentration and how it relates to the practice of insight meditation and mindfulness.
When we embrace and allow all areas of our experience with awareness, painful patterns in body and mind begin to dissolve. Gently, we learn how to accept and let go of judgment and reactivity within ourselves. As we practice the art of meditation, and as we non-judgmentaly view and understand the hindrances that stand in the way of or meditation practice and over all happiness in life, stillness, joy, and clarity begins to shine through.
