Deep Listening: A Nature Based Meditation Retreat with Kirsten Rudestam and Tanya Wiser


This is a silent, nature-based Vipassana meditation retreat. We are delighted to return to the precious land at the Rain on Snow Retreat Center for Listening to Nature. This retreat offers a precious opportunity to slow down, attune to the rhythms of the natural world, and explore practices of deep listening—to both our inner nature and the world around us. We will be camping along the Wind River in the Columbia River Gorge, a beautiful setting to cultivate a deeper connection with the natural world and bring the elements alive in our awareness and direct experience. Practice periods will include silent and guided sitting, walking meditation, and Dharma talks. This is a dana (donation) retreat. Our retreat is offered freely as a gift to those who attend—there is no cost. To learn more, email elementsnaturedharma@gmail.com More information will be posted in coming months.
