Healing Our Relationship with Ourselves and the Earth

Rebecca Bradshaw and Chas DiCapua will lead this residential retreat. With support and inspiration from the beauty of nature surrounding us, we will explore the Buddha Dharma from the paradigm of receptivity, allowing ourselves to be touched by life and recognizing our deep belonging in this world.

What the River Knows

Online
Join Lama Liz for the first of four explorations of teachings from the natural world or what we might call “Dharma with a capital D.” This is the same truth the Buddha taught, but learning to listen from the source awakens deep memories beyond the thinking mind, helping us to return again and again to the source of who we really are.
