Living Meaningfully, Dying Joyfully
In this contemplative retreat we will explore how to create a life of great meaning and purpose. Energize your life on this inspiring weekend away in the peace of Bowen Island. We will reflect on the preciousness of our life and on gaining an awareness of our mortality. These enriching and transformative meditations inspire us to deeply appreciate and make the most of our life.
The weekend will include teachings, guided meditations with Gen Delek and Gen Sanden, and time for Q&A. Enjoy the time between sessions to relax and spend time in the company of like-minded spiritual friends. This retreat is suitable for everyone, regardless of experience.
