Description:
This weekend retreat brings together the two rivers of meditation and qigong. This confluence of practice is a direct pathway to calming and strengthening the nervous system and restoring balance to the mind, body, and spirit. In community, we will discover how the integration of these wisdom traditions supports both the effectiveness and joy of our practice, while opening gateways to insight and wisdom. Connect attention with equanimity as skillful means to more fully embody compassionate presence and well-being.

Both days will include periods of guided and silent meditation practice, integrated movement, Dharma teachings, and opportunities for in-depth instruction in a non-judgmental, supportive environment. Practices will include standing, sitting, and supine qigong postures, as well as energy alignment. 

Join us to explore the foundations of energy cultivation and natural concentration through the life-affirming practices of Radiant Heart Qigong. All abilities and levels of meditation and qigong experience are warmly welcome!
