MY BELOVED - ARE YOU SURE?
Growing our happiness with a kind and curious mind
We can make our world more peaceful when we use mindfulness to calm our body and mind. We can then bring kindness and curiosity to look more deeply into our mind. The question “Are You Sure?” helps us to recognise our habitual ways of thinking. By practising to recognise and understand our beliefs, views and perceptions that cause ourselves and others to suffer, we have the chance to experience life anew.
This mindfulness retreat offers you the opportunity to rest, contemplate and come home to yourself with the support of Dharma talks, mindfulness practice, and opportunities to share, learn, and simply Be together.
The retreat will be offered by Dharma teachers Anton Bank and Caitlin Bush with support from Dharma Gaia practice friends.
Retreat cost and Dana:
Cost (food and accommodation): $200-$250 (sliding scale - please pay according to your means)
Dana: Our teachers offer teachings in the spirit of dana (generosity), so that they are available for all. By offering your financial support to the teachers, you enable the teachings to continue to be offered to others as they have been to you.

CANCELLATION POLICY
When we prepare for a retreat each one of you counts and is counted in the number of beds that are made and the amount of food that is cooked. As we are often booked out quite quickly, a cancellation can prevent someone else from joining us.
In the event of a cancellation up to 10 days prior to the starting date of the retreat, we can offer a 75% refund or the funds can be carried over to your next retreat.
However, a cancellation within 10 days of the retreat starting date is non-refundable.
We write this in light of goodwill and in the understanding that life being life, things may change at the very last minute. Please, contact us to share/explain your circumstances.
