Description
Autumn reminds us that change is a natural part of life—the leaves fall, the air cools, and yet something steady remains beneath it all. This retreat is an invitation to explore that unshakable part of ourselves, the place untouched by external changes. With awareness and compassion, we’ll move through guided meditations, teachings, and mindful walking, witnessing the beauty of release in nature. A warm tea break offers time for reflection, followed by a discussion on bringing this wisdom into daily life. Through gentle embrace rather than resistance, we’ll practice letting go with grace—cultivating resilience, ease, and trust in life’s unfolding.
