The Buddha’s Noble Eightfold Path—the fourth of the Four Noble Truths—offers a comprehensive training in cultivating wisdom, living wisely and kindly, and training the mind that leads to the end of suffering. In this daylong retreat we will explore this core teaching of the Buddha and investigate through practice and reflection how this path of practice can support us in our daily lives.

With practices of mindfulness, compassion, and loving-kindness, supported by poems, stories, short talks, mindful movement, and sharing, we’ll invite a letting go of attitudes and mind states that lead to stress and suffering and deepen those that support well-being, happiness, and freedom of the heart.

Participants are invited to attend for the full day or come for the morning or afternoon session.

Full day: 9:30 a.m. -4:30 p.m.
