Details
Peter Radcliffe has traveled the world learning the ancient art of meditation, and his passion is to share it – and help as many people as he can live the lives they live. Take a journey into the foundations of meditation, designed especially for those who want to gain a deeper understanding of the benefits a meditation practice can bring. Over the weekend Peter will share his down-to-earth, highly informative yet gentle meditation instructions. This Meditation Retreat is ideal if you are new to meditation, or still learning, but want to go beyond simple guided meditation. By learning from techniques of the past you will master the basics, and gain a solid understanding of what meditation is, how it works, and how it can benefit your mind and body. Based solidly on the Buddhist tradition, yet free from religion, Peter brings his modern style of logic and practicality to make meditation a part of your everyday life. You will learn techniques that people around the world have been using for over 2,500 years, and what to expect if you keep up meditation regularly.
