SUMMARY:(CANCELED) Daylong Retreat - Dennis Warren
DESCRIPTION:* * * This retreat is canceled. * * *\nOne Day Retreat with SIM’s Founding Teacher Dennis Warren\nRetreat theme: The Body in Question – An Investigation\nThe Body in Question – your body – will be the focus of this one-day retreat. The body at rest\, in motion and in relationship to others and the events around it. Our time together will involve investigations and experiments in sitting meditation\, common daily movements and active forms of movement – yoga\, Qi Gong\, golf\, dance and may more – as meditation.\nOur body\, and how our body moves\, form core elements of our identity\, our skills and our relationships with other. Being more conscious and purposeful in understanding how to be in the body\, stay in the body and fully experience the body is foundational to contemplative practice and to living fully.\nA key question we’ll examine: How can we help our body and its movements become a more vivid and enriching parts of our contemplative practice and our life whatever its current condition and limitations?\nIt would be helpful to review Dennis’ talk on August 12th entitled “Is Movement Meditation?” (click here) as preparation for this one day.\nThe subject matter of this one day is appropriate for all stages of practice. The principles we’ll explore will be relevant and adaptable to the condition of your particular body and its limitations.\nAll are welcome.

In 2007 and 2014\, Dennis led month long pilgrimages and moving retreats in Thailand\, India and Nepal. A third is being planned for late 2021. \nSacramento Insight Meditation events are sustained by the generosity of instructors in offering teachings freely and on the generosity of students and members of the meditative community in the form of financial support\, service and participation in events.
