Women, Wisdom and Meditation Daylong

  • Spirit Rock Meditation Center 5000 Sir Francis Drake Blvd Woodacre, CA (map)

“Our bodies know that they belong; it is our minds that make our lives so homeless.” –John O’Donohue

So much of our suffering can come from feelings of disconnection and separation— from ourselves and from the people and world around us. For many of us, this suffering is fueled by the stories we tell ourselves about our lives; stories about our lack of belonging. This daylong is an invitation for women to come together to practice in community and begin to understand and relax the hold of some of these stories. When we quiet the mind and open our hearts, we can begin to touch into our innate feminine wisdom and sense the truth of our deep belonging to the world. 

The daylong will offer periods of sitting and walking meditation, drawing from both Insight (Vipassana) and heart meditation practices. There will also be teachings, guided meditations and time for focused discussions. New and experienced meditators who self-identify as women are welcome.
