holiday for the mind

Enjoy a weekend of meditations and practical advice with Buddhist nun Gen Nyingpo. During the weekend we will learn and practice meditations that bring peace, joy and harmony to our life. Treat yourself to a real break – both physically and mentally and return home feeling refreshed and relaxed.

Retreat theme: Ocean of Peace

On this weekend retreat we will be gently exploring meditations that enable us to access a deeper quiet and stillness within our mind.

Buddhist nun Gen Kelsang Nyingpo will guide us through meditations to dissolve away mental busyness and awaken the potential of our mind for deep peace. We will engaging be  in meditations and learning to gain an insight into the limitless capacity of our mind.

These meditations are part of the Buddhist Mahamudra meditations – a simple yet powerful way to transform our mind and our life.
