Title
The Practice of Metta: Connectng With Our Natural Goodness
Retreat Description
This retreat will offer practices to open our hearts and connect with our natural goodness. As we cultivate metta, we cultivate self-acceptance, self-compassion, and the possibility and willingness to allow the natural disposition of our kind hearts to shine forth in all aspects of our lives. This non-residential retreat will include periods of instruction, sitting meditation, walking meditation, meetings with the teacher, and dharma talks.
