SUMMARY:Aug. 8 Meditation Retreat: FULL SURRENDER
DESCRIPTION:All phenomena are constantly changing\, arising and passing and arising and passing again into something new – including ourselves. “Life” is really a continuous flow; a verb instead of a frozen noun. Yet so often we suffer because of our very human tendency to grasp and cling to what is essentially in motion – especially our own identity as a solid and unchangeable “self.” \nFreedom and ease come from being able to recognize\, allow\, and align ourselves with this minute-by-minute\, second-by-second flow\, and to identify more with the vast\, loving ocean of awareness that is simply riding the waves of experience. \nDuring our time together\, we’ll be exploring a variety of guided and silent meditations to put us more in touch with the changing flow of phenomena\, a talk on annica (impermanence)\, silent walking meditation\, lunch shared in silence\, and quiet time in nature. \nWe’ll be gathering for our retreat on Saturday from 10 a.m. – 5:00 p.m in the beautiful\, peaceful\, light-filled sanctuary of Grace Episcopal Church\, 110 N. Church Street in Berryville\, VA. The spacious pews are padded\, and the quiet church grounds include a large Parish Hall building\, and several different lovely natural places to sit and walk. Lunch will be in silence\, and participants are asked to bring their own. \nLEARN MORE HERE

SUMMARY:March 7\, 2026 Meditation Retreat: True to Your Heart
DESCRIPTION:*Both online and in-person options available \n“Through mindfulness\, we discover a truth that is deeper than beliefs. These truths will transform our character\, our deepest sense of being. What we say and do comes to be in harmony with who we are. If we don’t become someone who is true\, we have no peace nor freedom. When our life is firmly based on truth\, peace is not something we have – it is who we are.” ~ Gil Fronsdal \nAs the teachings show us\, without a strong commitment to courageously face the truth within ourselves and our own hearts\, our practice will ultimately not lead us to the freedom from suffering we desire. \nIf we are serious about discovering for ourselves what leads to happiness and freedom from suffering … we need to strive to be impeccably honest with ourselves – which is often incredibly difficult. \nDuring our time together\, we’ll be gently exploring ways in which we can begin to take a more courageous look inside our own hearts through mindfulness meditation practice to discover what is true\, and start loosening the grip of suffering that has been holding us hostage. \nLEARN MORE HERE
