Description
Join us for a daylong Insight Dialogue retreat dedicated to cultivating equanimity, a quality that allows us to remain balanced, grounded and open-hearted amidst life’s inevitable ups and downs– especially just after the U.S. election.
Through guided meditation, contemplation and relational mindfulness practices, we will explore how to cultivate our capacity to stay present, spacious, and engaged, both in our own lives and in connection with others. We will also explore how to experientially discern the difference between the “near and far enemies” of equanimity and true equanimity. No previous Insight Dialogue experience is required. All are welcome.
Based in the Buddhist tradition, Insight Dialogue harnesses the power of relationship to amplify, refine, and accelerate the development of mindfulness, wisdom and compassion. Consisting of 6 meditative guidelines practiced in dyads or more, the practice supports the wisdom of Dhamma to enter the heart-mind in a direct and embodied way that is immediately applicable in daily life.
