Description:
This experiential daylong retreat is an invitation to rediscover your sense of aliveness. We will explore different facets of the direct experience of vitality, or life energy, including within the body, the mental/emotional, and the subtle as experienced in spacious awareness. We will also open to the vitality of the natural world, letting nature be our teacher. Bringing mindfulness to these dimensions can enhance our sense of aliveness, support resilience, and awaken gratitude for the gift of life.

This day of practice will include guided meditations, talks, and time for movement/walking meditation. The primary teaching method will be a progression of detailed guided meditations to support centering our direct experience rather than concepts. Open to all experience and vitality levels.
