| This retreat begins with the teachings and practice of metta, bringing a focus and steadiness to our heart and mind. As we open to a more accepting, expansive and loving heart, fearlessness and self-confidence are strengthened and our fundamental interconnectedness with all life is revealed. With metta as our ground, the course will gradually take us towards the teachings and practice of upekkha. This brings a clear-seeing acceptance and balance of mind, allowing us to relate to all that comes and goes within and around us with greater understanding and ease. |
