Retreat Dharma Talks at Gaia House

Practice as a Whole Life Path

Appropriate view, effort and mindfulness are said ‘to run and circle round’ the other path factors of the Ennobling Eightfold Path – a path of practice that encompasses the whole of one’s life.

On this retreat we explore how these three path factors are essential in guiding and guarding our practice in daily life as well as in our meditation practice.

We have periods of stillness meditation and movement/walking meditation, as well as meditation instructions and reflections. There are also opportunities for questions and discussion with the teacher.
