Summer Solstice Retreat: The Wise Heart

Service Description

Join Peggy Burt and the Spiral Heart Community in celebration of the Summer Solstice with a day- long retreat held in noble silence. This mindfulness meditation retreat is designed to support you to an expansion of Lovingkindness, Joy and Compassion. The day will include yoga, mindfulness meditation: both seated and walking meditation, mindful movement and mindfulness education around the Divine Abodes of Metta, Karuna and Mudita. This day-long retreat is part of Peggy's fulfillment of her certification process for the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program (MMTCP) with Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach. No prior experience is required - just an open mind and open heart. Participants will be invited to embrace the energy of summer and find deep peace within it all. The day will include time for lunch and time for reflection. Snacks will be provided. Scholarships available. Please inquire. This day is held in noble silence, but we will break silence for Q&A and we will have time at the end of the day to reflect in community.
