Disconnect from your devices and busy life, and enjoy short teachings, gently guided meditations, and breaks for silence, tea and contemplation. Our mind always has the potential to be clear, spacious and positive. Learn how to let go of distractions and access the clarity of your mind. No experience necessary, everyone welcome. with Kadampa Teacher Nancy Fox
