"The purpose of life is happiness
and the keys are in our own hands"
The Dalai Lama
Breathtaking sunrises and sunsets
Mind chatter down to a whisper
Unplugged and Wakeful
Join us as we bring the practices that secure happiness down to earth at a Mindfulness Retreat in the majestic Sierras!

We will experience, share and meditate on keys
that help to awaken happiness:
Let Go
Be Present
Tame the ego
Cultivate gratitude
Content with yourself
Feeling centered
Believing in your capability to respond well to life's challenges
These are the benefits of practicing happiness.
Imagine:
Sitting quietly and befriending your mind, opening your heart and experiencing your moments as rich and meaningful.
Invest 4 days, practice these keys and begin a path toward contentment, centeredness and an enduring sense of your own capability.
The retreat teaching fee is $100. A wide variety of lodging options are available, from camping to private cabins. Lodging and meals are extra. The meal fee includes three generous organically delicious meals per day.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Imagine your internal chatter
quiet, even for a moment.
Imagine the battle between your heart and mind
settled, even for a day.
Imagine feeling at home in your body
not lost, hungry or homesick.
Imagine the pull of the past and the
push of the future as invited guests, not intruders.
Imagine feeling content with things
as they are, though much remains undone.
Imagine less doing, and more BE-ing.
Imagine this very moment as enough.
Welcome to The Center for Mindfulness
where you can learn to stop imagining your life
and start embracing it, moment-by-moment,
with a peaceful
mind and an open heart.
"This moment is the perfect teacher"
