Details
Do you ever find yourself overthinking things, then feeling scattered, drained or overwhelmed? Ever feel you'll never be a good at meditation because your mind is "too busy?" You're not alone!
The good news is: despite how busy your mind may be, we all possess an inner potential for profound and lasting mental clarity and peace. And meditation is a very effective tool to awaken this untapped potential within us.
During this day retreat, we'll learn and practice meditations to:
Understand the true source of overthinking and being overwhelmed
Practice meditations to let go of endless and unhelpful thinking patterns
Discover mental clarity and peace of mind & learn how to strengthen it over time
Each session of the retreat will provide helpful instruction, guided meditation, and time for questions and discussion. We will also discuss practical methods to strengthen our clarity and peace in daily life.
No previous experience is needed, and absolutely everyone is welcome!
