SUMMARY:Finding Stillness
DESCRIPTION:5-day Silent Insight Yoga and Meditation Retreat\nStillness isn’t found in the mind; it resides in the heart.\nYoga and meditation are two sides of the same coin. The effect of these practices is the same, even though they may look and feel differently. They are two different paths leading to the same destination. In essence, yoga is meditation in motion and meditation is yoga in stillness.\nDuring these silent days, Insight yoga and meditation, Buddhist inspired Dharma talks and self-inquiry exercises will provide inspiration and enhance self-awareness. Join this retreat to reconnect with your heart and the stillness within, and allow the practices to guide you back to who you truly are.\nDuring this retreat Marije Paternotte will offer:\n\nAn exploration of movement (Yang yoga) and stillness (Yin yoga), as well as breathing practices, to elicit a wholesome expression of Chi in the body, fostering vitality and overall well-being;\nMindfulness and insight meditation;\nDharma talks; and\nPractices for self-inquiry.\n\nThe location\nConveniently located in a rural setting near New York City and Boston, the Won Dharma Center is set on 426 acres in Claverack in upstate New York, overlooking the Hudson Valley and the Catskill Mountains. Surrounded by wooded foothills with a nearby brook, the retreat center is a serene natural setting for contemplation and renewal. A green community designed with sensitivity to nature and issues of Sustainable Design, the center consists of eco-friendly buildings designed to provide a tranquil and meditative atmosphere. The Won Dharma Center won the 2010 Design Award from Faith & Form / IFRAA International Awards Program for Religious Art and Architecture.\nProgram schedule:\nWednesday September 3\nfrom 3 pm: check-in\n6:00 pm: dinner\n7:00 – 8:30 pm: Welcome session, Yin yoga and meditation\nSilence begins\nThursday Sept. 4 – Saturday Sept. 6\n7:30 – 8:00 am: Meditation\n8:00 am: breakfast\n9:30 am – 12:30 pm: program session\n12:30 pm: lunch\n3:00 – 5:30 pm: program session\n5:30 pm: dinner\n7:00 – 8:00 pm: Dharma Talk & Meditation\nSunday September 7\n7:30 – 8:00 am: Meditation\n8:00 am: breakfast\n9:30 am – 11:30 pm: Closing session and end of silence\n12:00 pm: check-out and lunch\nLocation\nWon Dharma Center\n361 State Route 23\nClaverack, NY 12513\nUSA\nRates per person\nSingle room: USD 1395\nDouble room: USD 1150\nQuad room (single beds): USD 880\nCommuter: USD 775\nFor further inquiries contact Marije Paternotte:\nregistrations@marijepaternotte.com ( mailto:registrations@marijepaternotte.com )\nBook event\n
