SUMMARY:Living Mindfully Retreat with John Bruna
DESCRIPTION:Fall Living Mindfully Retreat with John Bruna\nWe are excited to now be able to offer two options for our Fall retreat. You can attend the retreat in our usual format\, from Thursday through Sunday\, or extend your retreat for an addition two nights. \n\n“Mindfulness is much more than present moment awareness; mindfulness includes and facilitates the cultivation of concentration\, wisdom\, and the ability to make healthy choices that foster genuine happiness and a meaningful life.”— John Bruna \nOur living mindfully retreats focus on developing skills to reduce unhealthy mental habits and patterns that create emotional and physical distress. The skills of living mindfully empower you to engage in your lives in ways that reduce stress\, develop resiliency\, attain greater degrees of self-worth\, and cultivate more joy. Though based on Buddhist teachings\, these practices are taught in a universal language\, honoring and enhancing each person’s spiritual tradition and/or philosophy. Essentially\, these are skills to help one live a life they find meaningful and fulfilling. \nThe retreat is hosted by the Way of Compassion Foundation. To learn more and register\, click here. \nThe Blazing Mountain Retreat Center is located in Crestone\, Colorado. Nestled in the majestic Sangre de Cristo mountains of southern Colorado\, the retreat center provides a contemplative and quiet space for undisturbed and undistracted spiritual exploration. We found it to be an ideal location for us to host our retreats.
