When going through a difficult time, most of us long for a sense of connection, for being with someone who really cares and can stay present with us. Awareness practices are one way to bring mindfulness, courage, and self-kindness to uncertainty.
Join Karen Kissel Wegela in a weeklong meditation retreat based on traditional Buddhist teachings for developing our natural wisdom and kindness.
To enhance our work as professional healers and non-professional helpers, we draw on contemplative psychotherapy small-group practices to foster compassion and our capacities to support ourselves and others while staying grounded and present.
We practice how to improve relationships and deepen our abilities to listen, empathize, and guide others, as well as ourselves, toward natural wisdom.
The week includes meditations, listening, and sharing in dyadic, small, and large groups, as we gently explore our emotional strengths and challenges. A core community has been meeting for many years and warmly welcomes new members every summer.
