Awakening in Nature- day retreat

10am – 4pm on Sunday 8th June 2025

Newton & Bywell Village Hall, Newton Village, near Stocksfield, NE43 7UL

Come and join us for a day of guided practice, teaching & poetry

With Linda France, Fran Pierre & Walter Young

Spending time in nature, we start to see how everything is connected. Life relies on conditions in order to live: water, soil, light, insects. Living organisms are dependent on other organisms. Nature isn’t a set of distinct parts, it’s a system in which everything flows and changes. We’re part of that system and our lives flow with it, each moment rolling into the next. Understanding this in an embodied way can change how we live.

Together, we will explore practices that open us up to the flow of experience and our connection with the natural world. There will be guided meditation and teaching, with part of the day spent in silence.

Hot drinks and a simple vegetarian lunch with vegan options will be provided. 

Cost: the suggested donation for the retreat is £30, depending on your means.
