Each day there will be opportunities for outdoor exploration, training, meditation and indulging in some much needed recovery and therapeutic modalities including red light therapy, massage, and sauna.
Local, fresh produce, honey and more will be available at a nearby pop-up farmers market on Saturday.
Training
Practical Applications of Zen & Tai Chi
Mind-Body balance is talked about often, but seldom understood or embodied as clearly and practically as by GM Sam Chin.
In this retreat we will focus on the fundamentals of Zen philosophy:
- developing present awareness
- using the right reference to see things clearly
- recognizing things as they are
- right action
Through individual and partner exercises we will explore Tai Chi principles such as
- flow
- balance
- full & empty
