- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 18 Apr, 2026 at 10:00 am – Sat, 18 Apr, 2026 at 03:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: This is a very special opportunity to experience the deep inner peace that comes from a concentrated mind.

Life can be hectic and overwhelming; it’s easy to be “on” all the time without ever taking the time to be quiet and enjoy a simple day of rest and recharging. In this retreat, there is a wonderful opportunity to take a break and enjoy a day of stillness, meditation, rest and reflection.

This retreat will include guided meditations on the breath using the very simple yet profound mantra; OM AH HUM, the mantra of all Buddhas. Guest Teacher Gen Norbu will guide 3 short meditation sessions to help lead the mind to a state of deep concentration and peace.

Everyone welcome. No prior experience necessary.
