Practicing mindfulness in daily life can be like swimming upstream. The speed and demands challenge our capacity to dwell happily in the present moment. Retreats offer us the chance to step out of our of our daily lives. We are supported by the wave of our collective energy of practice. We swim with the tide and build our mindfulness "muscles." We emerge refreshed, renewed and ready to embrace daily life with mindful ease.
Catch the wave the weekend of November 4 - 6th! Registration is open for Cultivating Inner Strength with Br. Chan Huy now through October 25th. Space is limited so register early.
Scholarship update: So far four friends have generously donated $310 dollars in scholarships. $100 was given to sponsor a friend. Isn't that wonderful? As it stands right now, we have more demands for scholarships than we have funds. If everyone sent just $10 or $20 dollars with their registration, we could easily fund three to six scholarships. You don't have to attend the retreat to donate either.
We also suggest friends appeal to their Sangha for support in attending. Nothing strengthens and energizes a Sangha more than someone returning from a retreat, solid, stable and refreshed. It's an investment with far greater return than a book or video can ever offer!
We look forward to seeing you the weekend of November 4 - 6 for Cultivating Inner Strength with Br. Chan Huy. Register now!
