In this retreat, we will have in-depth practice of ID in a residential setting to deepen the 3 Bases – mindfulness and meditative qualities of the mind, wholesome relational qualities and wisdom. Daily silent practice and outdoor mindful working and relational practices will be part of the retreat too.

If rather than attending the retreat you would like to serve as a volunteer, please contact us. This would be an option if you are available but prefer not to practice full time and are willing to help in the kitchen, garden, running errands and similar. Ideally this would be someone who is already familiar with Fa Hong operations.
