Metta & Satipatthana Elements in Nature & Noble Silence
Join Sam for another magical retreat in nature with the exploration of “What do we take refuge in?” What leads to freedom from suffering? What is freedom, and what is suffering? We will explore these questions through Metta and Elements practices and hold noble silence during retreat time, except for short periods for questions from students and optional 20-minute talking periods after dinners.
There will be safe and accessible yoga offered by Haley Hayes each morning.
This retreat is acceptable for everyone, from beginners to seasoned practitioners. We will enjoy delicious vegan and vegetarian food once again, lovingly prepared. Camping in your tent or the bunkhouses at A Touch of Paradise in Paradise, Utah. Please plan to arrive at the camp by 3 pm on August 31st, and we will close the retreat at 1 pm on Sunday, September 3rd.
