SELF-INQUIRY, YOGA, DIALOGUE, AND SILENT RETREATS

Are you interested in unfolding the mind and body through self inquiry? Do you want to approach self-inquiry from a more embodied place? These special dialogue and movement bsaed retreats might be just the place for you!

 
 

I’ve had deep and lifelong contact with the work of J. Krishnamurti and lived at the Krishnamurti Foundation in Ojai for a year in 2012. My curiosity about myself and quest for truth led me to visit five of the Krishnamurti retreat centers in India where I lived off and on for two years. I’ve facilitated over 40 retreats at the KFA over the past decade. These weekends are opportunities to examine Krishnamurti’s work through a refreshed lens as one engages the body, brings the full self into the group inquiry, and attends to all aspects of self. These programs are not about somehow understanding Krishnamurti more deeply through the practice of yoga or embodiment. Instead, this weekend is about utilizing various practices to become more aware of ones body and deepen a relationship with it. When the body is tuned into, there is a quality of awareness and attentiveness that is brought to the inquiry. This kind of attention can bring about a unique sense of openness and connection to oneself and others.

 

  • -Opportunity to turn one’s attention inward

    -Yoga with a trained yoga therapist

    -Locally sourced vegetarian meals

    - My teaching style is methodical, intuitive, and somatic in nature. Expect to be pointed inward again and again toward practices rooted in direct observation, compassion, and meditation. Together, we explore the coordination of movement with breath to bring attention to the subtle movements of the body, breath, and mind.

    -We listen to and read Krishnamurti on subjects such as sensitivity, relationship, meditation, intelligence, and transformation; we sit together in dialogue to explore these subjects.

    Join us for three days of movement practices, dialogue, short periods of silence, time in nature, and delicious vegetarian meals!

  • -3-4 yoga classes

    -2X/day group dialogue

  • These retreats are a good fit if you:

    -find it interesting to explore your inner world within the context of dialoguing with others

    -have interest in self-inquiry
