Self-Confidence: A Silent Meditation Retreat

Self-criticism and self-loathing make us miserable and directly undermine our ability to grow into the person we wish to be. In this silent retreat, you'll learn how to experience your own extraordinary potential for happiness and emotional freedom that is the actual nature of your mind. From this perspective you can create authentic self-confidence, practice a radical form of self-care, and thereby lay the foundation for real spiritual growth.

In each session, Gen Zamling will provide practical instruction and guided meditations. No previous experience is necessary; absolutely everyone is welcome to attend.

Following the retreat, you're welcome to stay for refreshments and informal Q&A.
