The teachers are gentle, kind and warm with everyone made so welcome, new comers and returners alike. At the retreats refreshments are served between meditations where time is given to enjoy the garden and either share with others or sit quietly and contemplate. A truly relaxing and accepting space that stays with you long after you have left. read less

Amazing      gave me so much to think about.   Really felt a connection and resonance with the teaching.  Have been putting it into practice.
