RETREAT: Embracing the Season of Change with Compassionate Wisdom (Fully booked, waiting list only)

Fully booked, waiting list only

This Saturday Autumn Daylong retreat will be held in the very nurturing and beautiful environment of Mont Fleur, nestled in the mountains near Stellenbosch and has been shortened to end by 3:30pm with a revised sliding scale. It is suitable for beginners and experienced practitioners and provides an opportunity to deepen our self-care during this season of change, through the establishment of clear and compassionate boundaries. The retreat begins at 9 for 9:30am on Saturday 16th and ends between 3 - 3:30pm.

Drawing on the wisdom of Buddhist and Western psychology and through various mindful and compassion meditation practices, including sitting and walking meditations and qigong movement meditation, we will learn how to connect more deeply with our embodied, authentic presence in silence and stillness. As we befriend ourselves, listening softly to body, heart and mind with kindness and compassion, we cultivate the courage for deeper self-care and more secure boundaries, which improves our relationships both to self and others. The retreat begins at 9 for 9:30am on Saturday 16th and ends between 3 - 3:30pm.

A 30-50 minute pre-retreat individual session via Zoom/Whatsapp is recommended for newcomers or if you have not attended one of Sue’s residential retreats before. This provides greater containment and enhances and deepens the silent retreat experience for yourself and for the group. The fee for this will be the 30-40 minute medical aid rate and will be reduced if you are not on medical aid.
