Breaking Through Loneliness

With Resident Teacher Gen Jindak
December 5: 10am – 12:45pm

Loneliness. We’ve all been there. It’s such a painful, isolating feeling — sometimes it feels as if we can never escape it.
Yet it is completely possible to free ourself from loneliness, regardless of our circumstances, allowing us to realize that we are not isolated individuals, but deeply interconnected with those around us.

In this half-day retreat, through talks and guided meditations, we will learn simple, direct methods to remove our underlying sense of isolation, opening us up to an authentic experience of joy and connection with others. On this basis we will find it easy to develop fulfilling relationships and to feel that sense of connection even when we are alone.
