About the retreat
Dharma teachings and practices invite us to engage with our experience with care, attentiveness and wisdom. As we develop these skills of intention and attention, possibilities of wellbeing open up. A wellbeing that includes the personal and relational aspects of our lives, a cultivation of peacefulness that is inclusive as it is radiant, a gift to ourselves and to the world.
The day will include silent and guided meditation, teachings, meditation instruction and time for discussion. Meditation periods will last 30-45 minutes and will include practice both in stillness in the hall and in movement outside. The days will be held in companionable silence, including during the lunchtimes. Chairs, mats, meditation cushions and hot drinks will be available. There will be an opportunity to meet and chat with others at the end of each day.
The weekend will be suitable for beginners and more experienced meditators.
About the teacher
Zohar Lavie has been practising meditation in different traditions since 1995. This journey has taken her from the meditation cushion into exploring further ways of expressing truth and love, and in 2004 she co-founded Sanga Seva . She now spends most of her time facilitating retreats that offer service as a spiritual path around the world. Since 2006 she has been teaching on silent retreats and Dharma gatherings in India, Europe and Israel.

Your ticket pays for the costs of the retreat but does not cover a payment for the teachings. You will be invited to offer a donation (dana) to support the livelihood of the teacher. Please see more detail about this below.
Booking
We request that people book places for themselves. If you are booking for yourself and somebody else you must make a separate booking for each person, with an email address for each.
Dana
Dana can be translated as cultivating generosity or giving. The teachers who lead our retreats receive their travel costs and ‘out-of-pocket’ expenses but do not receive any payment for their teaching. However they are happy to receive voluntary contributions from participants in the events they lead. These offerings are traditionally called dana. Most of our teachers depend on dana for most or all of their livelihood.
Our teachers are following an ancient tradition, offering teachings freely just as they received them freely from a previous generation of teachers. In this way the dharma (the teachings of the Buddhist tradition) is not made an object of commerce, and the relationship between teacher and student is based upon trust, freedom, and mutual generosity.
If you attend one of our events and appreciate what the teacher has offered, we warmly invite you to make whatever contribution you feel appropriate. If you do so, you will be making a vital contribution to their livelihood and helping them to continue teaching on this generous basis, particularly in situations where people cannot afford to pay anything.
Dana can be offered to the teacher, Zohar Lavie, during and after the retreat
