‘If we practise cherishing others sincerely in this life, we will resolve many problems of anger, jealousy and so forth, and our mind will always be calm and peaceful.’
During this retreat we will focus on meditations on loving kindness.
On this relaxed retreat half-day learn two guided meditations that can be practised by anyone. With regular practice, these meditations help us to increase our mental peace, improve our relationships and be of real benefit to others.

Please take care driving down the lane as we are blessed with a lot of wildlife.
