£100/75 waged/unwaged
She has an active quality of kindness, stepping out of meditation and into the world. Come and join us for a weekend getting to know her more deeply while camping outdoors together in a beautiful location in the West Yorkshire countryside.
There will be meditation, ritual, small group discussions, creative activities, music and fire!
On this retreat we will be living and working together outdoors, which requires a fair amount of physical exertion of various levels, both during and at the end of the retreat, as we dissolve our retreat site back into empty space. If you have limitations on your physical energy or abilities you are very welcome to join us, but please let us know this when you book so we can plan around it.
The retreat will begin with dinner at 6pm followed by an opening ritual at 7.30pm on Friday, and end with a closing ritual at 3pm on Sunday. To support the sense of a retreat community we will build over the weekend, we expect all retreatants to attend both these rituals and to remain on or around the site between these times. If you have exceptional circumstances which mean you may not be able to do this, please contact the team before you book so we can discuss how this will impact on the retreat community and work out whether we are able to accommodate this.
Buddhafield North is committed to promoting kindness and inclusivity. All our retreats are open to bookings from a wide diversity of people. If you are unsure if we are a good fit for you, please get in touch. Please also contact us if you’d like to suggest how we can best be welcoming to you.
Our wish is for every retreat to be a space that is safe, welcoming and respectful, together honouring our differences and celebrating the gifts we each bring, treating one another with kindness at all times.
This retreat is a Women+ retreat, meaning it is open to all women, including transwomen, and is also open to non-binary people who feel comfortable in a women-centred space.
Experience level: This retreat is open to women+ who have been meditating for at least a year and are familiar with the Triratna Buddhist Community.
This is not a single sex retreat according to the 2010 Equality Act, but it is a women+ weekend and we ask that everyone respects that.
