The Art of Loving-Kindness A Meditation and Yoga Retreat

WELCOME A HEART-CENTERED PRACTICE 

Eastern contemplative traditions universally believed that a loving heart was the fruit of all meditative practice. Over time, the cultivation of loving-kindness (metta meditation) became a highly sophisticated art in both the yoga and the Buddhist traditions.   

Join acclaimed author and teacher Stephen Cope and his dear friend Missy Brown for a three-day program focused on the systematic cultivation of loving-kindness. This on campus program will include 

  • Loving-kindness practices, as well as other forms of meditation that support compassion and equanimity 
  • Dharma talks, group sharing, journaling, and chanting 
  • Daily mindful yoga practices. 

This relaxed, friendly atmosphere welcomes practitioners of all levels of experience to encourage a deeper understanding of the importance of loving-kindness.
