Dear friends, I'm so happy to introduce a brand new meditation retreat focused on compassion and lovingkindness. Thank you for your patience as I designed this day. Sunday, July 26, 10 AM to 4 PM, North Austin (in person). Most meditation begins with the breath. This day begins with the heart. A free, secular day retreat on the four qualities of the heart: lovingkindness, compassion, joy in others' good fortune, and a wide, steady equanimity. No belief required. Short teaching, guided practice, time to talk. Again and again, a little deeper each round. New sitters welcome. Longtime sitters who were never shown the heart, especially welcome. Bring a cushion, comfortable clothes, and your own lunch. Offered as a gift. Nothing to pay to reserve your seat. Only 20 spots on each platform. If you use Meetup, sign up there. If you don't, feel free to use Eventbrite.
