Finding Sanctuary in Chaotic Times:
Working with fear, anxiety, and overwhelm
Daylong Retreat with Tempel Smith
Saturday, October 12
9:30 AM – 4:30 PM
In Person and via Zoom
We humans now find ourselves in extraordinarily challenging times.
The urgency of climate change, the heartbreak of global conflicts, and the stress of major elections all add up to fairly overwhelming circumstances. This retreat will offer practices to soothe the nervous system, bring balance to the heart-mind, and build a base of equanimity from which we can respond to these challenges.
Times like these call us to see clearly, stay grounded, and bring wisdom and compassion to our response.
This retreat will offer Buddhist practices to meet the fear and overwhelm that may arise in these chaotic circumstances.
Join visiting Spirit Rock teacher, Tempel Smith, for a Friday evening and Saturday retreat to take a deep breath, gather some tools, and find sanctuary amid the overwhelm.
If you attend the Saturday retreat, please try to make the Friday night talk as well.
