Nature is our Body: Dharma and Connection to the Earth
Registration Opens - April 8. Our body can be a vehicle for liberation in this life, containing all that we need to wake up. Yet we may not know how to relate to the body to support this kind of freedom. Together we will practice connecting to our body with loving awareness while recognizing ourselves as part of nature, which includes developing awareness of our mortality. This retreat will be held in silence as we are supported by nature on the land at Spirit Rock.
