Autumn Mindfulness Retreat - Silent Simplicity

Escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and immerse yourself in silent serenity with our morning Autumn Mindfulness Retreat. Our annual retreat will take place at the beautiful Mansfield Freeman Center for East Asian Studies in Middletown, CT and will offer a perfect opportunity to rejuvenate your mind, body, and spirit overlooking a harmoniously balanced Zen garden.

The retreat theme is Silent Simplicity, which underscores non-judgmental awareness, mental relaxation, being in the present moment within the vast web of interconnectedness, without any religious, sectarian or doctrinal content.

First-timers to the most advanced are welcomed to our 2.5-hour morning retreat, which will include: basic sitting meditation instruction, conscious breathing, sitting, walking and voice meditation, and noble silence. This retreat is not religious or “Buddhist” but focuses on the human practice of silent meditation. As already mentioned, it’s appropriate for anyone, over the age of 16, from any religious tradition, and for the non-religious too.

Potential Outcomes:

1) Enhanced Mental Clarity and Focus

2) Reduced Stress and Anxiety

3) Emotional Healing and Well-being

4) Deeper Spiritual Connection
