Resilience & Resourcefulness
With Carolyn Anne BudgellTake just 10 days to remember how resilient you are, how struggles have shaped and taught you, and that opportunities for more empowerment never stop. Together, we will remember: that inner storms and uncertainties are callings for us to grow, that boundaries are essential when considering our relationships and support networks, that the mind, the body, rest, and love are all part of the process of resilience. Together, we explore ways to move forward - not in perfection, not in comparison, not in a linear measured pace, but simply forward with more understanding and with a deeper tether to our own center and strength. Each day includes a blend of insight into psychological and physiological patterns, poignant inquiry, and meditative quiet. Inwards and onwards the journey continues.
Remember your ability to recover from setbacks, reframe your outlook, and move forward with curiosity and trust.

Meet your Teacher
Carolyn Anne Budgell stumbled upon a silent retreat in 2009 and hasn't looked back since, aside from the frequent moments she looks back to resolve the judgement, the shame, and the anxiety within. She is an ERYT, BA and mama residing in Vancouver, British Columbia, whilst teaching yoga and mindfulness classes, workshops, and trainings locally and around the world. Carolyn has been leading meditation since 2011 in all types of settings: one-on-one, intimate groups, and corporate settings. She has studied with teachers from the Buddhist Vipassana Movement and Zen, notably Tara Brach, Adyashanti and Reggie Ray. You can find her audio meditations here on Insight Timer. Carolyn guides her workshops and retreats in a simple and accessible language. She firmly believes that meditation is not just about being still and silent, but also requires a willingness to: look within honestly, connect to self and others, and transform the patterns that prevent us from growing. In this way, every aspect of life becomes a meditation. "Your life is the practice." Start within and everything will shift... life is the practice.
