SUMMARY:Cultivating Ease and Joy
DESCRIPTION:This is an in-person/online hybrid event. Register HERE \nThe registration deadline for in-person participation is May 9 and online participation is May 21. \nFrom Dukkha to Sukkha: Cultivating Ease and Joy\nJoin us for a weekend dedicated to practices designed to help move into a greater sense of tranquility and well-being. The heart of the Buddhist teachings is to move beyond suffering and stress–dukkha–and into a state of well-being or joy–sukkha. Removing ourselves from daily stresses\, coming home into the body\, learning to stay with present-moment experiences\, and practicing relaxation and lovingkindness meditations all serve to enhance our capacity for peace and happiness. \nWe will practice cultivating a deeper sense of ease and joy through dharma talks\, guided and unguided meditations\, group meetings with the teachers\, and mindful movement. \nRetreat Schedule \nRetreat fees: only cover direct expenses for this event\, such as room\, meals\, and administrative costs. \nDana offering: In keeping with the Buddhist tradition\, the teachers and retreat managers receive no payment. Donations offered by students at the end of the retreat are appreciated and support the teachers and retreat managers in continuing to make the teachings available to all. Dana offerings are tax-deductible. \nHealth Policy\nPlease be mindful of your health\, and do not attend any in-person events if you are experiencing symptoms of cough\, fever\, or stomach upset. The safety of all depends on the care of each individual. \nIMCW Refund Policy\nIf you cancel more than four weeks before the start of the event\, your deposit will be refunded minus a $50 administrative fee. We cannot offer refunds for cancellations made less than four weeks before the event unless we are able to fill your space. If we are able to fill your space\, the administrative fee will be $100 and the balance will be refunded. There is no refund if you decide to leave the event early. You have the option to receive a refund or to offer the balance of the registration fee as a tax-deductible donation to the IMCW Scholarship Fund. Please email Anne Adams Green to specify your preferences. \nScholarships\nIf you need financial assistance\, please fill out and submit the Scholarship Application (find here).  Please wait to register until you receive a discount code. If you have any questions about scholarships please contact Anne Adams Green. Funds are limited\, so please apply early. \nRideshare\nHelp others on the path to awakening! During registration please indicate if you can OFFER a ride or if you NEED a ride and include location details. Closer to the retreat we will allow rideshare folks to connect. \nSilent Retreat\nThis is a silent meditation retreat held in noble silence; it is not an interactive workshop. \nPlease note\nIf you are in the midst of a life trauma\, emotional upheaval or instability that might require individual support beyond our scheduled meetings with teachers\, the retreat format may not be a good match at this time. Should you have any questions about this\, please contact the manager using the Contact Us link below. \nJoin us in person.\nWe’ll be at Wellspring Conference Center. Here’s a map. \nThis venue has two ADA-accessible single rooms. Please contact us to request. \nOr join us online.
