The Alchemy of Release: A Retreat

September 23 - September 25

Online

The Lotus Institute will host The Alchemy of Release: A retreat on grounding and letting go September 23-25 on Zoom.

Thich Nhat Hanoh defined nirvana as letting go. Grounding ourselves in the present moment, we can learn to relax into letting go and become more available to life.

“Letting go gives us freedom, and freedom is the only condition for happiness. If, in our heart, we still cling to anything—anger, anxiety, or possession—we cannot be free.”

— Thich Nhat Hanh

During this 3-day online retreat, Dharma Teachers Sister Peace, Ava Avalos, Joe Reilly and Peggy Rowe-Ward will explore the embodied practice of letting go. Ava Avalos will offer mindful movement through dance and restorative yoga. Joe Reilly brings the gift of ritual and music. Sister Peace will share stories and walking meditation. Peggy Rowe-Ward offers teachings and experiential exercises that help us return to our wise hearts and practice letting go like a river.
