Meditative Retreat: "Self-Image: Observing, Recognizing, Releasing" August 2, 2010

"…we must first see that the self-image is not a genuine part of us, that we do not need it, and that, in fact, the self-image obscures our true being…the self-image imprisons us in blockages and constrictions. Our natural flow of energy is interrupted, and the range of our responsiveness and the depth of our experience are severely limited."

We break free from the restrictive force of self-images through developing the ability to observe experience steadily. Then we can recognize how mental and emotional patterns are structured and more easily release what is negative. In this retreat, we master the process of observing, recognizing, and releasing, unlocking the secrets of how mind operates.

Begins Monday morning and ends Saturday at 4:45 PM. Instructors: Sylvia Gretchen and the Nyingma Psychology staff.

Please RSVP at least 3 days in advance by calling us at (510) 809-1000 or e-mailing us at [email protected]. This ensures we provide enough food and rooms for everyone!
