(Friday evening – Sunday, 3 p.m)

The theme for this weekend silent meditation retreat will be:
“Time Out”

Joy Fox, Wattle Hollow owner, therapist, and retreat leader,
will guide us in exploring our concept of time:

“The iron grid of time that society imposes on our psyches keeps us locked into a certain mindset, and locked out of present tense reality. During this weekend, we will use writing, Vipassana meditation, eating exercises, stretching and sharing to peek into living here, now.”

Cost: $90, includes lodging, food and retreat. Please know that no one will be turned away for lack of finances.

The Great Mother

Saturday, May 1st, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.

This year we are inviting all the local NWA meditation groups to join us for a day of contemplative meditation focusing on the feminine principles of self-acceptance and unconditional lovingkindness.

We will tour the many Mother/Feminine meditation sites at Wattle (i.e. the Black Madonna, Virgen of Guadeloupe room, the Earth Mother, Gaia, Kuanyin), and silently discover what resonates from within. Meditation will be led by Joy Fox, with accompanying yoga.

Cost: dana/donation. Lunch will be provided.

You must reserve ahead of time, please.

May 15 – 17, Friday 6 p.m. – Sunday 3 p.m.

This will be a deeper immersion into silence and mindfulness, utilizing Buddhist meditation, automatic writing, and the practice of yoga.

Led by Joy Fox, founder of Wattle Hollow.
Cost: dana (donation).
