[BLS-Special-Events] 2009 Retreats with Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh - MARK YOUR CALENDARS!

[Dr. Martha Martinez]

2009 Retreats with Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh:  Join Us!

 
 
Dear Dharma Brothers and Sisters,
 
The Broward Lotus Sangha invites you to join us during Zen Master Thich Nhat 
Hanh’s 2009 tour of the U.S.A. when, as one community (or Sangha), we will be 
attending some of his retreats.  Just like we do in our BLS Days of Mindfulness 
and Mini-Retreats, we will enjoy healing practices such as sitting meditation, 
mindful breathing, mindful walking, mindful sharing, silent meals, total relaxation, 
mindful movements, and touching the earth.  We will also have a unique opportunity 
to listen to Thay’s Dharma talks and to practice with Thay and many other Dharma 
Friends how to come back to ourselves, to nourish our relationships and welcome 
joy, love, and peace into our daily lives.
 
As many of you know, our favorite Thich Nhat Hanh retreat takes place at the 
YMCA of the Rockies, in Estes Park, Colorado.  Join the Broward Lotus Sangha 
for a mindfulness retreat in the majestic natural setting of the Colorado Rocky 
Mountains, a land truly blessed with beauty and wonderful healing energy, 
August 21st-26th, 2009.  This is usually a family retreat, so people of all ages 
and backgrounds are welcome to attend.  Besides the group activities that are 
open to all age groups, the monastic Sangha develops three separate mindfulness 
tracks specifically designed for adults, teenagers, and little ones so that everybody 
gets a chance to practice.  The Broward Lotus Sangha already has a group of 
Sangha members that is going to attend this treat of a retreat, so join us!  
 
We are making arrangements so that we can travel together as a Sangha, stay 
together (e.g., share dormitories or other accommodations), and practice together 
while attending these retreats.  PLEASE LET US KNOW AS SOON AS POSSIBLE 
WHICH RETREAT(S) FROM THE LIST BELOW YOU ARE INTERESTING IN 
ATTENDING SO WE CAN MAKE THE APPROPRIATE PREPARATIONS ON 
BEHALF OF THE SANGHA.  Please e-mail your contact information including 
name(s), e-mail, physical address, and phone numbers to 
info at BrowardLotusSangha.org.  Next year, as more information becomes available, 
we will contact those who pre-registered with us to provide you with further details 
about the retreats.
