The Nature of Compassion Retreat

During the retreat we will have the opportunity to explore self-compassion, and compassion for our wider community and the world. We will make the most of the beautiful grounds and countryside in and around Brinscall Hall and connect with nature through mindful compassionate awareness. Nature allows us to go deeper into our experience, creates freedom and expansion, and enables us to connect to something bigger than ourselves. We will connect with nature through gentle mindful activities, silent walks in the local countryside and you are invited to enjoy the ancestral feeling of a communal campfire.

Experienced and qualified mindfulness teachers Lilasuri and Karen will facilitate a safe holding of the retreat. In this supported container of stillness and care, we can experience a deepening of our own mindfulness meditation practice.
