In this retreat we come together to quiet the mind, listen deeply, and learn the practices and science of the Wise Heart. We share teachings, meditations, storytelling and in-depth conversation, and will practice together, cultivating trainings of mindfulness, compassion, forgiveness and lovingkindness. Both experienced and new students, therapists and healers are invited to learn how modern science has begun to study and understand our inner potential, and how we can bring the well-being from meditative practices and the wisdom of Eastern psychology into our busy lives. Drawing on bestselling teacher Jack Kornfield's new book The Wise Heart: a Guide to the Universal Teachings of Buddhist Psychology, this retreat will renew your inner life and nourish your spirit.
