Daylong: Lovingkindness

Sunday, Jun 2 10:00 AM - 4:30 PM
Kay Spiritual Center, American University, Wash DC (map it)

Lovingkindness is a meditation that cultivates our natural capacity for an open and loving heart. It is traditionally offered with meditations that enrich compassion, and joy in the happiness of others, and also deepen our own sense of peace. These practices lead to the development of concentration, connection, fearlessness, and genuine happiness. 

Sharon Salzberg will introduce these teachings and support us in our own experience and cultivation of these qualities through direct instruction and guided meditation using classical techniques in a modern idiom. There will also be opportunities for questions. This workshop is suitable for both new and experienced meditators.

Retreat Manager: Glen Harrison

Venue: Kay Spiritual Life Center, American University
4400 Massachusetts Avenue Northwest, Washington, DC (see "Map It," above for directions).

Online registration will close at 3 p.m. the day before the retreat (Friday) unless it is full before then. Walk-ins are welcome; you may pay with a check at the door.
