This will be the second of two Mini-Retreats on this day--you are welcome to join one or both Mini-Retreats. For deep rest meditation, you are welcome to get comfortable--lying down for meditation if you like, or choosing any position that supports depth for you. The atmosphere is friendly, profound and welcoming of each one of us as we are. This Mini-Retreat will begin with a guided deep rest meditation. We will then shift to a 15-minute, optional guided creativity session--doodling, writing, dancing, whatever you feel like. No skills required--just curiosity and willingness to try this form of meditative movement to help get in touch with deeper kinds of knowing. Next will be time for questions, a short Dharma talk and dialogue on awakening the heart...not just relaxing out of the mind, but also listening and responding to the intelligence of our open nature. We will close this second of two mini-retreats with a final short meditation. If you join the first Mini-Retreat as well, you will have a 90-minute break for your own silent meditation, movement and/or meal. You can join one or both 2-hour Mini-Retreats, and organize your day around this as a half-day retreat.
