Guided Day Retreats
@ Buddha Land KMC, Keighley
Sat 10 & Sun 11 January, 9.30am – 4pm

Stilling and controlling the mind are essential skills for finding happiness in busy modern life. These guided retreats will help us to experience a clear mind and develop our inner good qualities Attend one or both days.
Mental clarity helps us:
- Think clearly
- Act decisively
- Deal with difficulties more effectively
- Understand the real causes of our problems
- Find a deep and lasting contentment
Through meditation we can reach a deep, natural clarity of the mind that is normally obscured by daily busyness. This retreat will help us to discover this natural clarity and learn to benefit from it all the time, not just during meditation.
