The Heart of Awareness: Exploring the Foundations of Mindfulness
Registration Open. In this retreat we will be immersing ourselves in what are traditionally called the Four Foundations of Mindfulness—mindfulness of body, feelings, mind, and the tendencies of mind that lead to suffering or liberation. This is a powerful practice framework for cultivating openhearted awareness with the full dimensionality of our human experience and liberating insight into the nature of mind and experience itself.
