True Freedom : The Practice of Surrendering Desire
Freedom lies within each one of us. Culturally we understand freedom as that which is found through the validation of external forces. True freedom is practicing the ability to listen to and take action from the perspective of the soul. Once we acquire the tools and refine the skills to discover and surrender our desires, we are able to cultivate lives with less suffering and therefore more freedom.
Join us for a winter weekend retreat to explore meditation, movement and ritual as gateways to harnessing your true freedom.

The retreat will be held at the beautiful Won Dharma Center in Upstate New York, nestled on 400 acres overlooking the Hudson Valley and the Catskill Mountains.
