LAST CALL FOR LATE WINTER/EARLY SPRING RETREAT WITH ERIN JOOSSE
February 29th-March 3rd, Harmony Hill Retreat Center
Kalyāṇa-mitta is a Pali term and Buddhist concept of which means spiritual friendship, or admirable friendship. Within the Pali Canon (the first recorded teachings of the Buddha), one of the followers/disciples of the Buddha comments that spiritual friendship is half of the spiritual life. The Buddha corrects him, declaring “No! Kalyāṇa-mitta is the whole of the spiritual life.”
It is through friendships with those that are also on a path of the development of wisdom, compassion, and mindfulness, that those qualities deepen and develop in ourselves.
We are not on that path alone.
During this retreat weekend, explore both settling into yourself and into community with care and support. In our yoga and mindfulness practices, explore grounding and steadiness that you can take with you into your connection to others. Explore optional practices in pairs and small groups to deepen our ability to stay connected to ourselves while in communication with others.
Please note: This is our last retreat with Harmony Hill under current management. Our future retreats here are uncertain. Let’s gather in community and honor this life-giving center, the land, and all of the heartfelt goodness that has been created in these spaces. Currently only 1 room left.
Hope to see you there,
