Mindfulness Sesshin–A Zen weekend of Silent Meditation & Healing Yoga at Zen Rocks Mani Retreat
Spread the word
“Seize the opportunity,” was what a wise teacher used to say to me.
Seize the opportunity to practice looking in deeply and to live life to its fullest.
Following the schedule of a traditional Zen Sesshin, you will spend a few days in silence, allowing the mind and your nervous system to release, to fall gradually into the depths of your inner terrain, where your Buddha nature (or awakened nature) abides.
Here, at the space of the inner heart, compassion naturally blossoms; healing energy starts to flow as the inner wisdom arises. We will take meals together in silence, Japanese Oryoke style, and keep silent throughout the day.
You will do two short yoga sessions daily. A slow embodied Abhaya Yoga practice in the morning will help our body-mind to move and unlock, and in the afternoon to gently restore & relax.
When we discover that the truth is already in us, we are all at once our original selves.
