Retreat: Mindful Movement +Meditation

Service Description

Enjoy a weekend of quiet contemplation, nourishing movement, and community! This special Mindful Movement & Meditation Retreat will be held October 6-7 at St. George's Episcopal in La Canada, led by Peggy Burt and Addie deHilster. There will be opportunities for social connection, as well as deepening into silence, as we take this time away from everyday distractions. We'll gather on Friday night for a restful and heartful Yin Yoga class with Addie, followed by a community potluck. Return on Saturday morning with Peggy's Yoga Basics class (optional and not silent), or choose to join us for the silent retreat program, which begins at 10:15. The silent retreat will include instruction from both Addie and Peggy, exploring the themes of Benevolence (Metta/Lovingkindness) and Balance (Equanimity). You'll be guided through gentle Mindful Movement practices, Sitting and Walking Meditation, Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra. In the absence of speech and conversation, you may find your mind settles more easily into presence. Friday 6:00-7:30pm - Yin Yoga with Addie 7:30-8:30pm - Community Potluck Saturday 8:30am - Yoga Basics with Peggy (optional) 10:15am - 3:30pm - Silent Retreat The event will be an informal Spiral Path Yoga reunion, since Addie will be making her first visit to LA in 2 years to join Peggy in leading this retreat! Directions, parking info, and further instructions will be sent to registrants to help you prepare for this weekend of practice. Friday's dinner is potluck, and on Saturday you'll need to bring a sack lunch. Priority will be given to those who wish to attend the full weekend event, but some last-minute spots may be opened for Friday-only and Saturday-only attendance. --
