Living in the Present Moment: A Retreat in the Tradition of Thich Nhat Hanh

Life can only be found in the present moment. Yet we live with regrets about the past and hopes/fears about the future. In this retreat we will practice going back to the present moment, where all the wonders of life can be found. We will use the techniques of conscious breathing, sitting and walking meditation, chanting and singing, to learn to be aware of every movement, every thought, every feeling that arises within our daily life. We will touch the peace that is within us and all around us. With continued practice we will be able to touch the pain that lies deep within us- the fear, anger and despair- with mindfulness and tenderness so that we can be transformed and healed.
