About this event

Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

We often feel stuck in painful habits of thought, such as anxiety, feelings of hurt or depression. Because we perceive our mind to be fixed and unchanging, we feel trapped inside these painful emotions. But this seemingly inflexible mind does not correspond to the true nature of our mind. In this retreat, we will be guided on a voyage of exploration of our own mind through which we will discover our potential for inner peace.

By meditating on the clarity of our mind, we will come to understand that our potential for change is limitless, and that both the freedom from unhappiness and the attainment of enlightenment are definitely possible. We can then initiate a joyful process of profound transformation.
