Deep Relaxation for Body and Mind - Urban Half-Day Retreat

Enjoy time out from the pressures of daily life to relax both body and mind in our half day urban retreat of three meditation sessions.

Gen Kelsang Dragden, Resident Teacher at KMC Plymouth, will provide us with clear instructions and guide these meditations sessions with practices to truly relax both our body and mind. Letting go of our normal appearances and concerns through meditation, we can dissolve into the peace and tranquillity of more subtle levels of mind. In doing so we can experience and hold a deep sense of physical relaxation and mental freedom.

Having experienced these very practical meditations, we can take them with us to use at any time in our everyday life. All these meditations can be practised by anyone, and no previous knowledge or experience is required.

Urban Half Day Retreat Format
These events are suitable for everyone, no previous experience needed. Everyone is welcome. Enjoy the benefits of more time than in our evening classes, the opportunity to meet and talk with fellow attendees and the chance to take some time out in the peaceful atmosphere of KMC Plymouth.

Each of the three sessions will include:

• a guided relaxation meditation
• a short practical teaching
• a second meditation with guidance based on the teaching

Between sessions there is a break for light refreshments in our World Peace Café and the chance to socialise and discuss the session and teachings with others.

After the third session, there is also the opportunity to ask the Teacher questions and discuss our learning and experiences.
