Deep Ecology
Genuine Love for the World
Deep Ecology is a transformational body of work that includes theories and interactive practices enabling us to deepening our connection for Positive Action. It supports physical, mental and emotional wellbeing in times of great uncertainty. A heart-centred transformational work to deepen our connection with ourselves, each other and the web of life.
Fernanda will guide experiential practices through the four stages of the spiral of the Work That Reconnects. These four stages help us experience first hand that we are larger, stronger, deeper, and more creative than we have been brought up to believe.
The Work That Reconnects was developed by Joanna Macy, PH.D., AUTHOR AND TEACHER, SHE IS A SCHOLAR OF BUDDHISM, SYSTEMS THINKING AND DEEP ECOLOGY. A RESPECTED VOICE IN THE PEACE, JUSTICE AND ECOLOGY MOVEMENTS.
Everybody is welcome. No previous experience necessary.
Fernanda Lenz is a Deep Ecology facilitator, photographer and documentary filmmaker. In a world marked by crisis and uncertainty, she leads transformational work sharing the fruitful resonance between Buddhist thought and the Ecology movement, helping people to experience being part of the Living Whole and recommit to wholeheartedly engage in its healing

We will look at the newest scientific evidence and hear talks from therapists and doctors with clinical experience on this subject.

In the Footsteps of The Buddha
The Buddha’s teachings of Liberation and Freedom
Silent Insight Vipassana Meditation Retreat
Strengthening our capacity of a clear and focused attention
The five spiritual powers: faith or conviction, energy or effort, mindfulness, concentration, wisdom
This silent retreat will offer instructions on mindfulness meditation in the four postures, dhamma talks, inquiry sessions and interviews with the teacher.
INTRODUCTION
Sitting together for a retreat is a precious and wonderful opportunity. With joyful anticipation we look forward to your possible presence at this retreat guided by the Samatha-Vipassana Teacher Bhante Anuruddha.
This Samatha-Vipassana retreat will be for experienced students and new yogies.
We will begin working, with some Anapana sati teachings and practice, for strengthening our capacity of a clear and focused attention. We will then move into Vipassana/Insight teachings and practices based on the four domains/foundations of mindfulness, through a general overview of the teachings, and we will engage in the practice with this perspective…along with some specific mindfulness based insight teachings and practices that will be offered along the way.
In the sequent days we will bring our attention back to the Anapanasati practice to continue strengthening and deepening our capacity for a clear and focused attention until it appears in our ongoing body/mind/heart continuum.
During the retreat we will observe the five precepts of a lay practitioner. Those who would like to explore the practice by observing the eight precepts are also very welcome. Together we will have daily evening Dhamma Talks, Dhamma contemplation and/or guided session as well as shorter morning reflections and/or practice instructions (mostly in the morning during the after-breakfast group session). Students are requested to attend all the scheduled group sessions. Bhante Anuruddha offers one-on-one practice meetings every two days for each student. Some students may choose to sit more independently some times. This option can be discussed with the teacher during the practice meetings.
In accordance with the tradition, the teachings are offered freely on a Dana (donation) basis.
