Meditation and Daoyin retreat 

with Shijing

2019 June 29^th – July 1^st

AIM

Emptying out is an essential part of being on retreat and allows us to be present with, and open to, whatever arises. A space can arise naturally for us, where nothing needs to be added or taken away. We can begin to appreciate our being on a simple and organic level. This quiet change from doing to being is Daoist cultivation.

we always begin with an informal introduction to the daoist view. Based on ancient root texts, these clear and insightful perspectives on the Dao are fundamental to our approach to cultivation.

TECHNIQUES

On this retreats, we will be learning a set of seated daoyin movments. These include self-massage and simple postures, followed by Tranquil Sitting meditation. Shi Jing will also give talks on the daoist view to help shape our approach to this cultivation.
