Wild Body Wild Mind
With Lama Willa Blythe Baker and Lama Liz Monson
October 17 - 22, 2017
Finding the Inspiration for Meditation Practice in the Temple of the Natural World
Where is the wilderness inside you? Can you tap this fertile source of energy and joy and dance with the shifting, graceful nature of your own body and mind? In this five-day residential retreat, we will embark on an inner journey to find the roots of our own wild, creative energy by taking our cues from the non-conceptual presence of the natural world. By retraining our inherent ability to directly connect with the ever-changing textures of our sensory life, we will rediscover our innate capacity for grace, flexibility, openness, and delight with the changing weathers of our lives. This retreat will involve contemplative practices and meditation both indoors and outdoors among the mountains and lakes of New Hampshire’s upper valley.
Please contact Liz Monson with any Program Curriculum questions.
