    In this retreat we will explore practices that observe how our bodies seem to hold emotions and what happens in the body when emotions arise. Our purpose will be to simply allow experience rather than to change, fix, or explain anything. By becoming aware of what is there, we can befriend it in a non-conceptual way.
