People of Colour Big Weekend at Adhisthana, UK

By Centre Team on Fri, 19 Apr, 2024 - 18:01

A unique opportunity to spend a long weekend surrounded by nature, meditating, relaxing and connecting with other people of colour. Chat to new and old friends over a cuppa or a walk in the Malvern hills, and with opportunities to go deeper in periods of silence.

The retreat is led by a wonderful team of experienced practitioners who will share their wisdom through talks, led-discussions and guided meditations, and this year will feature an exciting international guest speaker joining us from overseas.
