SUMMARY:(IN-PERSON) Daylong Retreat - Rich Howard - Begin Again
DESCRIPTION:Daylong Retreat with SIM Teacher Rich Howard\n\n\n\nFor biographical details of the teacher Rich Howard\, click here. \n\n\n\nBegin AgainWe follow the breath for a while and the mind drifts off: Begin again. We practice diligently for months and life events intervene\, taking us away from regular formal practice. Circumstances change: Begin again. We get caught up in the busy-ness of our day and lose awareness. Then we remember: Begin again. It has been said that beginning again IS the practice. Whether in formal meditation\, on retreat\, or in daily life\, the ability to start over without judging ourselves or getting discouraged is key to developing the continuous awareness that leads to insight and transformation. In this daylong retreat\, Rich will offer a modified version of SIM’s beginning class retreat\, with lightly guided sitting and walking periods. There will be a body scan and opportunities for questions and responses. Bring a lunch and plan to stay all day in noble silence. This day will be ideal for newer students and for more experienced meditators who are willing to bring an open mind and gentle self-compassion to their practice. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nAbout This Hybrid Retreat\n\n\n\n\nThe teacher will present in-person at the Dharma Center.
