Retreat Dharma Talks

The Fire Within: Detangling the Obstacles Towards Freedom

Whether in our daily practice or daily lives, we are faced with obstacles that either hinder us or propel us forward. How do we identify these hindrances that arise in our lives and bring attention to their antidotes so that our hearts and minds remain fluid, open, and receptive to our awakening path? As a BIPOC community, we will explore the Buddha’s core teachings with mindful awareness as a vehicle to freedom of mind/heart. We will practice seated and walking meditation with instructions as well as Yoga and gentle movement, connect with teachers in small groups, and hear Dharma offerings. All levels of practice are welcome.

This retreat is silent except for teacher-led Q&A, small groups, or other practice meetings.
