Just Be: A July 4 Personal Retreat
Description
Over the long holiday weekend, step away from the demands of everyday life and settle into the peaceful atmosphere of our Center. This retreat offers space to turn inward and give your full attention to your practice.
Spend time in meditation in Milarepa Hall, in the comfort of your room, or at one of the many quiet spots across campus, including the outdoor practice pavilion and the wooded trails. Enjoy a massage, practice yoga, or linger in the library with its extensive collection of dharma and other books. Explore the trails or nearby parks, gather by the firepit in the evening, and look up at the stars. Just be.
