What AWAKE is all about...
AWAKE is an opportunity to experience YOU. YOU are NOT the roles you play, the things you own or the emotions you have. YOU are limitless, pure, peaceful and powerful potential just waiting to be uncovered. AWAKE is a community that offers many experiences including silent mindfulness retreats which include mindful meditation, gentle asana, dharma talks, a mindful lunch, qi gong/ti chi, music, chant, yoga nidra and more. AWAKE is chance to slow down and spend time with a community of like-minded people mindfully uncovering the true YOU. We are sure you will leave feeling embodied, radiant, peaceful, at ease and ready to connect more deeply with your life and the relationships within it.
How Mindfulness works…
Mindfulness is present moment awareness. Without a mindfulness practice you most likely spend your days planning for the future or worrying about the past. You may be busy trying to get happy by working hard to change external, worldly things like your roles, job, income, material items and relationships. You may have noticed that looking for lasting peace in impermanent people, places and things simply doesn't work. Mindfulness practice helps you to directly experience that you already are happy, peaceful and at ease. You see it's an inside job. No need to try and get happy once you discover - at your core - you area already 100% complete, peaceful and at ease.
