Retreat Dharma Talks at Gaia House

Living With Illness and Loss (online)

A time to connect with our human condition in a wise and gentle way. The resources of wisdom and compassion practices support us to hold our hearts tenderly, grounding our being and opening our view. The retreat will be based on ancient teachings, but we’ll also include more creative periods — like writing, drawing, nature connection — to help us touch into our universal condition in a personal way. May this retreat help us all to meet illness, loss, and vulnerability with courage and wisdom.
