Awake in the wild                                                                                                                                                                                    3-10 May 2024                                                                                                                                                                                       On this retreat we will take our meditation practice outdoors. Awakening our senses to the different elements of the surrounding landscape, we will cultivate a deeper sense of connection with nature and with ourselves. To help ground our experience we will have a daily gentle movement practice, with early morning Qi Gong by the loch and an afternoon session of guided movement/dance exploring the elements in our embodied experience.

Dances of the heart                                                                                                                                                                                              14-21 June 2024                                                                                                                                                                                       This retreat will take an embodied approach to the traditional Buddhist practice of the Brahma Viharas – the cultivation of loving kindness, compassion, joyful resonance and equanimity. The invitation is to step into this mandala of the heart - to meet and know these qualities in our bodies and in our dance. We’ll be learning how we can deeply resource ourselves through meditation and movement to embody and cultivate these qualities in our lives. More info and book here.
