with visiting teacher Gen Kelsang Lachpa
Our mind is our greatest healer.
Discover how to actualise your potential to overcome all mental pain, sorrow, loss, physical suffering, illness, and disease through one of the most renowned ancient meditations taught by Buddha, known as “taking and giving.”
Join us for this day retreat to practise transforming the simple act of breathing into a powerful healing practice that causes mental peace and happiness, improves concentration, enhances our love, compassion, and wisdom, and brings great meaning to our life.
This retreat offers a rare opportunity to step away from everyday activities and worries and embark on a meditative journey understanding how powerful our minds of love, compassion and wisdom.
Each session will include an uplifting teaching and guided meditations, allowing both new and experienced practitioners to relax and enjoy this step-by-step retreat, reaching deeper levels of inner peace and happiness.
