What
we eat is important to
our
well-being. How
we eat can have just as
great an
impact. Come
nourish body, mind and
soul as we as we explore
mindful eating as a tool
for healing and insight
and learn how our
relationship to food is
deeply connected with
our relationship to
spirit.

a safe, compassionate
environment, you will be

Mindful,
sacred eating for one
of your 3 meals per

Perhaps
the greatest benefit to
mindful eating is that
the practice of
mindfulness ~ being
fully immersed in the
present moment ~
evokes insight,
enjoyment and a sense of
peace ~ so
important in this
chaotic world. With the
practice of mindfulness,
we become wiser moment
by moment. The quality
of serenity begins to
permeate every aspect of
our lives.
Together, let's create a
more peaceful world, one
deep breath, one savored
morsel, one kind thought
at a time.
The
retreat begins with
supper at 6:00 p.m. on
Sunday and concludes
with lunch at noon on
Friday.
