Inner Peace – Inviting Ease

This midweek retreat combines invigorating Kum Nye and meditation, inspired by Tarthang Tulku’s The Joy of Being.

We all want peace and ease, yet much of life is spent on alert, bracing for inner and outer challenges. But do these defenses really move us closer to the peace we seek? What if trust, love, and openness could become our natural starting point? Could difficulties point to hidden possibilities, and even our deepest fears become gateways to insight?

Over four days, we will explore how to cultivate inner peace through Kum Nye Tibetan relaxation exercises and guided meditation. The program includes readings, sharing, and contemplation, while the heart of the retreat lies in experiential practice. Drawing on excerpts from Joy of Being and Revelations of Mind by Tarthang Tulku, we will look deeply into the structure of inner experience and discover ways to move beyond the pressures and limits created by the mind’s habitual patterns.
