NOTE - THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED.

“The heart of man is very much like the sea, it has its storms, it has its tides and in its depths it has its pearls too” - Vincent van Gogh

Your Mindful Coach is pleased to present “Unleashing the Compassionate Heart: A Men’s Mindfulness & Meditation Half-Day Retreat.” The retreat takes place at Tredyffrin Library in Strafford, PA on Saturday, July 30 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Our fast-paced modern lives seem to require a thick skin to navigate the opportunities and challenges that meet us at every turn. We can become habituated to respond to our circumstances quickly and impulsively. In this retreat, we will explore mindful practices of the heart, mind and body that help us to connect to our authentic selves. By allowing vulnerability and engaging our intuition, we can unleash our true nature for creative, mindful living.

Compassion can be a tool to achieve well-being that doesn’t cost us anything. By recognizing that all beings have the right to be happy and free from suffering, we may come to experience the same in ourselves. This requires practice and useful tools as we open our hearts and improve our capacity to love.

The day will be accessible to all men, regardless of their experience. We will do several guided meditations and partner activities of 10 to 20 minutes along with leader talks and discussions. No need to bring anything. You'll want to wear comfortable clothes, most of the time we will be sitting in chairs, or if you prefer, you may want to bring a mat or cushion. Light refreshments and snacks will be offered.
