Half-Day Retreat with Jean Haley
Saturday, November 4th
1:00 - 5:00 PM
In-person and On Zoom

Putting aside our duties, responsibilities, and social engagements for a period of time can be a powerful support for the deepening of insight and for touching into deeper states of calm and peace. During this daylong retreat we will each do our creative best to maintain a simple and quiet environment. We will intentionally limit our speech with those we live with and put aside our phones for this period of time. The teachers will offer guided meditations, talks, and times for group discussion. We will commit to following a simple schedule of sitting and walking meditations so to better sense that we are taking up this retreat day together. The Buddha taught that a calm & serene mind is capable of seeing clearly the nature of the heart and mind in a way that is liberating leading onwards to greater wisdom and compassion in our lives. Please join us for this day of practice.
