The Way of Contentment: A Half Day Mindfulness Meditation Retreat

with Lhasha Tizer MS, CDL

Saturday, December 13th from 1:00 to 5:00 pm
$65, Sol Center Member Discount Applicable

Have you ever wondered what it might feel like to truly be at peace? Have you ever considered that it is something you can develop and cultivate?

An extended period of meditation practice is an opportunity to take refuge from the busyness of everyday life and unwind into relative stillness and silence. It is a time to attune to the emergence of each moment with interest and awe. And to rest burdens and quarrels with the world or anyone in it.

The afternoon will consist of an opening talk, siting and walking meditation, Loving-Kindness practice, and a Dharma talk on the theme of contentment. All woven together to revitalize your energy at the end of the year, strengthen your meditation skills, and deepen your understanding of the contemplative path and methods for bringing greater ease to your daily life, relationships, and work in the world.

Nothing to run from or run towards
Just this breath, awareness knowing itself as embodiment.
Just this breath, awareness waking up to truth.
