- **Event Description**: A weekend of meditation, noble silence, stillness, mindful movement practice & men’s connection.About this EventWhat this weekend isOpen to all men.We slow down, get quiet, and notice how thoughts are a constant distraction to being in the present moment. With simple mindfuless sitting practice, walking meditation, and movement like Qigong and yoga we can become more aware of our inner world and let things slow down like the silt that settles at the bottom of a pond, providing more clarity to what lies beneath the surface. This also allows us to look honestly at how we were shaped as men and how those patterns show up today. With awareness, we can release what no longer serves and choose what does.The containerThis weekend will be in noble silence. Most of the time we will not talk, including during meals. The stillness created by prolonged silence is a specific goal.
