SUMMARY:Embodied Wisdom and Compassion: Insight Meditation\, Tai Chi and Qigong Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Teachers: Subhana Barzaghi and Shirsha Marie \nInsight meditation practice explores the whole mind body unity with curiosity and mindfulness. The Buddha claimed that\, ‘Within this fathom long body lies the path to wholeness and awakening.’ \nAs an ancient treasure map the body is a crucible for inner transformation. With mindful\, embodied\, compassionate presence we can untangle and release those knots of tension and contracted identity and find replenishment\, grounding and insight. For life to flourish each one of us must return again and again to the ground and refuge of our own wakeful presence and aliveness. \nQigong is an ancient practice that stems from China and the nature- based philosophy of Taoism. Its traditional self-healing exercises and meditative techniques provide a broad range of both preventative and curative health benefits. \nThe words ‘Qi Gong’ mean energy work\, that is\, the cultivation of vital life energy. The system integrates body\, breath and mind into a harmonious whole through co-ordinating soft flowing movement\, deep rhythmic breathing and a calm meditative state of mind. \nThe schedule includes: sitting & walking meditation periods\, daily meditation instructions\, open inquiry sessions\, Dharma talks and two daily Qigong classes. \nRetreat is suitable for beginners and experienced meditators. \nOpen for bookings here. \nDOWNLOAD WORKSHOP FLYER

SUMMARY:Insight retreat: Deepening Into Stillness
DESCRIPTION:Teachers: Subhana Barzaghi & Alan Bassal \nThe retreat will provide the opportunity to deepen into awakening presence\, being free from the agitations of the thinking mind. When we do experience presence and stillness\, most of us are quickly pulled back into the world of the mind which gets caught up in past and future thoughts. Deepening into stillness allows us to examine and transform the habitual limited patterns of mind that create confusion\, anxiety and suffering. \nThe retreat will support inquiry into what it means to be fully awake\, what takes us out of that state and how to remain more fundamentally present and alive in our daily lives and relationships. \nThe retreat program consists of sitting\, walking & guided meditations\, meditation instruction\, group & individual meetings with teachers\, open inquiry sessions\, evening Dharma talks & morning and afternoon gentle yoga sessions. \nDOWNLOADS:\n» Deepening Into Stillness Flyer (pdf)\n» Download Deepening Into Stillness Registration Form

SUMMARY:Awakening the Joy of Creativity in Tuscany
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a nourishing 7-day Mindfulness and Creativity Retreat at the beautiful Villa Boccella located in Tuscany Italy\, where we will replenish\, explore and celebrate our innate creativity.   \nThe retreat is a time for inner rejuvenation that arises from stillness and insight meditation\, which opens up a space that restores our energy\, reinvigorates our passion and enhances creativity. When we enter the silence and stillness of meditation we connect more fully with nature and with ourselves allowing us to touch and explore our innate wisdom and creativity.   \nBy releasing the blocks to creativity we discover that it flows naturally from an engaged\, open\, and free heart. We will explore the way joy and creativity arise from both light-hearted and difficult circumstances as a celebration of our tender and resilient human heart.

SUMMARY:Southern Insight Summer Retreat: New Zealand
DESCRIPTION:We will once again be running a week-long silent insight meditation retreat early in the year of 2017. This is a wonderful way to being the year and is suitable for beginners or experienced practitioners. \nInsight meditation allows us to examine and transform the habitual limited patterns of mind that create confusion\, anxiety\, reactivity and suffering. The Dharma teachings\, practices of mindfulness and the spirit of inquiry cultivate insight into the true nature of the open heart-mind\, which is essentially free\, intrinsically empty\, naturally radiant and ceaselessly responsive. \nAn open heart and open mind cultivates and awareness and clarity that is available in each precious moment and a profound ease and connection with all of life.\nThe retreat offers an ideal opportunity for established meditators to deepen their practice. Those new to meditation can experience a valuable and gentle introduction to silent meditation and the dharma teachings in a welcoming supportive environment. There will be opportunities for creative expression to enhance and bring new dimensions to practice. \nDownload Retreat Flyer (PDF)
