The Embodied Contemplative with Terry Doyle

This retreat will explore how the practice of meditation can also be encountered through the language of the body using breathing exercises, gentle stretching and slow Tai Chi movements to complement the seated meditation periods.

“Be Still Like a Mountain, and Flow Like a Great River” as the workshop and retreat will be about exploring how to discover the strength and stillness within ourselves that helps us to flow and engage with life more fully.

The retreat starts with supper at 6:30pm on Friday 9, September and ends after lunch on Sunday 11, September.

Suggested donation: £190
