WAKING UP TO YOUR DEEPEST VALUES

In Buddhist thought, there are three paths to enlightenment. The monastic path and the cave dweller involve turning away from the distractions of everyday life. Only the third path—the householder yogi—involves turning deeply toward everyday life as a way to wake up. 

Join New York Times best-selling author and acclaimed Buddhist teacher, Susan Piver, for a weekend retreat to explore the following: 

  • Meditation as a spiritual practice rather than self-help 
  • A daily ritual to keep you connected to your deepest values 
  • Six transcendent actions to deepen your relationships 
  • Five steps to create a sacred home life 

You will also explore the Heart Sutra, an ancient text that connects you to wisdom beyond concept. Return home understanding how the way we love, work, and make a home are integral to our spiritual practice.
