World Summit 2011 Day of Retreat

 

 

IVOH Summit Retreat Day 2011

Thursday, September 15th
7:00AM - 6:00PM
 
Theme: Mindfulness
 

You are warmly invited to an intimate day of deep spiritual rest in the beautiful and quiet mountains of the Catskills at Peace Village, a retreat center of the Brahma Kumaris. In advance of Images & Voices of Hope 2011 Summit, this day-retreat gives an opportunity for silent refreshment related to the theme of Mindfulness.
 
This lovely day begins with a sunrise meditation followed by some tai chi before breakfast. An experiential class, The Power of Mindfulness, will guide each individual through meditative exercises to enable them to touch the often illusive stillness and beauty of the mind.

The retreat includes reflective journaling, a walk in the woods, or the luxury of an after lunch nap, and always a cup of tea.

The afternoon includes an enlightening talk on "Overcoming Fears and Doubts" to learn the art of happiness. The retreat will end with a meditation and we will celebrate a day well spent as we watch the sun set.
