Retreat Description
We are relational beings, and for most of our evolution we have learned that safety and ease come through being with others we can trust. This "Social Dharma" retreat will explore the central importance of being in a safe and compassionate environment. Specifically, we will practice
- "insight": understanding and deep connexion with one's internal experience, and
-"midsight": having a supportive and enjoyable felt sense experience of being in a space with others
So much of our days are spent in connexion with others, in person, on the phone or online, and these moments offer many opportunities to feel safe, be more grounded and bring meaning in one's life. With practices both in silence and in communication, in this this retreat you will:
- Practice social meditation and enjoy the support of being with others
- Explore the links between community-building & Buddhist spirituality
- Practice a range of nervous system regulation tools
- Offer you a personal session to deepen embodiment by a trained somatic facilitator (limited spaces, see below)
- Be supported by the wider holding of a team of compassionate facilitators
- Find ways to integrate the practices in daily life
Schedule
The retreat starts on Friday August 5th at 6pm CEST for a welcoming and presentation of the coordination elements of the retreat, until Sunday 1pm CEST.
Small group practices
The focus of this retreat is to explore how we can support one another in meditation, which we can social meditation.
