About the event
Join meditation and qigong instructor Charity Kahn for a morning of peaceful practice at Animal Place. We’ll experience lovingkindness meditation, walking meditation, and the gentle moving meditation of qigong, all with kind awareness of the cherished animal residents of the sanctuary. We’ll connect with the Earth, our animal relatives, each other, and our own compassionate hearts. The retreat will be held mostly in silence.
The retreat lasts from 10-12:30, with a 10-minute bio break mid-way. Feel free to bring a vegan lunch if you’d like to picnic with other attendees in community from 12:30-1:15. Stay longer for a private tour of the sanctuary from 1:15-2:15.
