Insight Meditation and Qigong: Embodying the Dharma
GAIA HOUSE, South Devon
September 5-10th
Brad Richecoeur and Catherine McGee
No experience necessary.
In this retreat, through the complementary practices of Insight Meditation and Qigong, we will cultivate a sustained and gentle attentiveness to the movement and stillness of the mind and body. Through this cultivation we can access a spaciousness which allows the healing and intelligent wisdom of our true nature to shine through. In this environment the entanglements that bind our heart, mind and body can soften and open up. The Qigong practice explores simple standing and moving exercises suitable for all levels of experience and health.
Cost: £188/£160 for food and accommodation.
Teachers accept donations for their teaching of the retreat.

Insight Meditation and Qigong Silent Retreat
GAIA HOUSE, South Devon
24-29th April 2009
Brad Richecoeur and Norman Feldman
No experience necessary.
Settling into a spacious awareness of the present moment we can begin to allow the busyness of daily life to fall away and rest gently in the simple moment to moment experience of what is. Through the sitting practice of Insight Meditation and the standing and moving meditations of Qigong (which are suitable for all levels of experience) a steady mindfulness is cultivated, allowing insight into our true nature to effortlessly arise, leading to a more wise and compassionate relationship with ourselves and the world. This is a silent retreat with alternating periods of sitting meditation and Qigong practice.
Cost:TBC
