RETREAT: Finding Our Still Centre, Alone & Together
In this nourishing, overnight retreat we will cultivate a loving, open heart, alone and together in shared silence. As we create a safe and gentle home within, we will discover that deepening our self-compassion allows us to relate and connect to ourselves and to each other with more courage, kindness and trust. Through our heartfelt, authentic presence we learn to give and receive more generously, bravely and compassionately.
9am for 9.30am on 14 March until 2pm on 15 March 2026
This retreat is suitable for beginners as well as experienced meditators, individuals as well as couples, and is held in the very nurturing and beautiful environment of Mont Fleur, nestled in the mountains near Stellenbosch.
This retreat includes teachings from the wisdom of Buddhist psychology, guided meditations in all postures and a short, individual/couple session during the weekend. The ancient practice of qigong movement meditation, as well as an optional yoga/mindful movement class or two, as well as optional 30 min aromatherapy back and neck massages, will enhance our embodied experience.
A 30-50 minute pre-retreat individual session via Zoom/Whatsapp is required for newcomers and by all couples attending together, especially 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 30-50 minute medical aid rate and will be reduced if you are not on medical aid. Please contact Sue on sue.stillmind@gmail.com to arrange a time.
