Winter Retreat: Inspiration and Spiritual Growth
Monday 4 January – Monday 11 January
Venue | Middleton Hall, Belford, Northumberland NE70 7LF.
Start the year with a beautiful week away in meditation retreat at Middleton Hall near Belford, Northumberland.
This guided retreat offers a unique chance to pause, reflect, and delve into the profound meaning of the Migtsema Prayer.
With the guidance of our Resident Teacher, Buddhist nun Gen Kelsang Norden, who has over thirty years experience of guiding meditation retreats, you will be led through a series of powerful meditations designed to transform your mind and open your heart.
Each session contains some traditional chanted prayers (Hundreds of Deities of the Joyful Land), essential instructions and time to meditate and experience the meaning in your own heart.
Through these meditations, learn to cultivate inner calm, wisdom, and compassion, paving the way for a truly happy and fulfilling life.
The accommodation is in high quality single and shared rooms. Middleton Hall is set in large grounds in which you can walk freely in between sessions or sit quietly and enjoy.
