5-Day Retreat. Friday JUNE 6th – Wednesday JUNE 11th.

“This practice is not about trying to stop thinking. It’s much deeper than that. It’s about getting to the source of the desire to think, seeing that no thought is real, no thought is creative. Realising that every thought that we have is a judgement and related to a past experience. It’s about seeing that even though we feel secure in our thought world, this supposed security is really a fear of the unknown, the fear that if we don‘t think, we’ll cease to exist. But we were all young children at one time, innocent, vulnerable and free from the desire or need to think.”
