Silence is Golden Retreat, Sat. May 28, 10am - 3:30pm at Dipamkara Meditation Center, 282 New York Ave, Huntington

Have you ever wondered what it would be like not to talk and just be silent for a period of time? Don't think it's possible?

Challenge yourself to discover the real freedom to be found in a calm and quiet mind. Escape the busyness of daily life and experience a short meditation retreat where everyone observes the practice of silence for a day in order to enhance focus and insight, and to gain a deep level of relaxation.

In our busy daily experiences we can often become disconnected or closed towards others in our life and feel isolated and lonely even when we are surrounded by people. Take time to re-connect to your heart and to heal your relationships through the quiet of meditation. This is a wonderful way to prepare for upcoming holiday time with family and friends.

This is an introductory silent retreat. The day will include an introduction to meditation and silent retreat, three guided meditation sessions, and a conclusion and discussion at the end. For this retreat, you must plan to attend for the whole day. For more information, contact us at info@meditationonlongisland.org
